The RX loops in ravb_rx_gbeth() and ravb_rx_rcar() skip to the next loop
iteration if a zero-length descriptor is seen (indicating a DMA mapping
error). However, the current RX descriptor index `priv->cur_rx[q]` was
incremented at the end of the loop and so would not be incremented when
we skip to the next loop iteration. This would cause the loop to keep
seeing the same zero-length descriptor instead of moving on to the next
descriptor.
As the loop counter `i` still increments, the loop would eventually
terminate so there is no risk of being stuck here forever - but we
should still fix this to avoid wasting cycles.
To fix this, the RX descriptor index is incremented at the top of the
loop, in the for statement itself. The assignments of `entry` and `desc`
are brought into the loop to avoid the need for duplication.

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 reStructuredText 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.
