Title
usbnet: ipheth: do not stop RX on failing RX callback
Summary
In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved: usbnet: ipheth: do not stop RX on failing RX callback RX callbacks can fail for multiple reasons: * Payload too short * Payload formatted incorrecly (e.g. bad NCM framing) * Lack of memory None of these should cause the driver to seize up. Make such failures non-critical and continue processing further incoming URBs.
