net: stmmac: fix dropping of multi-descriptor RX frames

Packets without the last descriptor set should be dropped early. If we receive a frame larger than the DMA buffer, the HW will continue using the next descriptor. Driver mistakes these as individual frames, and sometimes a truncated frame (without the LD set) may look like a valid packet. This fixes a strange issue where the system replies to 4098-byte ping although the MTU/DMA buffer size is set to 4096, and yet at the same time it's logging an oversized packet.
