gianfar: fix jumbo packets+napi+rx overrun crash



When using jumbo packets and overrunning rx queue with napi enabled,
the following sequence is observed in gfar_add_rx_frag:

   | lstatus                              |       | skb                   |
t  | lstatus,  size, flags                | first | len, data_len, *ptr   |

02 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT            | 0     | 3200, 1600,  c5a57780 |
01 | 10000640, 1600, INTERRUPT            | 0     | 1600, 0,     c5a57780 |
00 | 14000640, 1600, INTERRUPT FIRST      | 1     | 0,    0,     c5a57780 |

So at t=7 a new packets is started but not finished, probably due to rx
overrun - but rx overrun is not indicated in the flags. Instead a new
packets starts at t=8. This results in skb->len to exceed size for the LAST
fragment at t=13 and thus a negative fragment size added to the skb.

This then crashes:

This patch fixes this by checking for computed LAST fragment size, so a
negative sized fragment is never added.
In order to prevent the newer rx frame from getting corrupted, the FIRST
flag is checked to discard the incomplete older frame.
