net: asix: fix fortify warning



When compiling with gcc version 14.0.0 20231129 (experimental) and
CONFIG_FORTIFY_SOURCE=y, I've noticed the following warning:

...
In function 'fortify_memcpy_chk',
    inlined from 'ax88796c_tx_fixup' at drivers/net/ethernet/asix/ax88796c_main.c:287:2:
./include/linux/fortify-string.h:588:25: warning: call to '__read_overflow2_field'
declared with attribute warning: detected read beyond size of field (2nd parameter);
maybe use struct_group()? [-Wattribute-warning]
  588 |                         __read_overflow2_field(q_size_field, size);
      |                         ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
...

This call to 'memcpy()' is interpreted as an attempt to copy TX_OVERHEAD
(which is 8) bytes from 4-byte 'sop' field of 'struct tx_pkt_info' and
thus overread warning is issued. Since we actually want to copy both
'sop' and 'seg' fields at once, use the convenient 'struct_group()' here.
