Grygorii Strashko says: ==================== net: ethernet: ti: cpsw/emac: switch to use skb_put_padto() Now frame padding in TI TI CPSW/EMAC is implemented in a bit of entangled way as frame SKB padded in drivers (without skb->len) while frame length fixed in CPDMA. Things became even more confusing hence CPSW switcdev driver need to perform min TX frame length correction in switch mode [1]. To avoid further confusion, make xmit path more clear and linear, and avoid updating CPDMA configuration interface for min TX frame length correction (which is not CPDMA job in general) this series switches TI CPSW/EMAC drivers to skb_put_padto() instead of skb_padto() in their xmit path, so skb->len also got updated properly and then removes TX frame length fixup from CPDMA code.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
