PATCH v2 1/1 net: sh_eth: fix skb_over_panic happen

When this GETHER controller received a large frame (about 1800 bytes or more), skb_over_panic() happened. This is because the previous driver set the RFLR to 0x1000 (4096 bytes) and the skb allocate size is smaller than 4096 bytes. So, the controller accepted such a frame.

The controller can discard a large frame by the RFLR setting. So, the patch modifies the value of RFLR to mtu + ETH_HLEN + VLAN_HLEN + ETH_FCS_LEN.

---
about v2:
- add VLAN_HLEN to the value of RFLR.

Applied, thanks.
