[Intel-wired-lan] [PATCH iwl-net] ice: recycle/free all of the fragments from multi-buffer packet

The ice driver caches next_to_clean value at the beginning of
ice_clean_rx_irq() in order to remember the first buffer that has to be
freed/recycled after main Rx processing loop. The end is indicated by
first descriptor of packet that the Rx processing loop has ended. Note
that if mentioned loop ended in the middle of gathering a multi-buffer
packet, next_to_clean would be pointing to the descriptor in the middle
of the packet BUT freeing/recycling stage will stop at the first
descriptor. This means that next iteration of ice_clean_rx_irq() will
miss the (first_desc, next_to_clean - 1) entries.

 When running various 9K MTU workloads, such splats were observed,
mostly related to rx_buf->page being NULL as behavior described in the
paragraph above breaks ICE_RX_DESC_UNUSED() macro which is used when
refilling Rx buffers:

To fix this, compare next_to_clean with first_desc at the beginning of
ice_clean_rx_irq(). In the case they are not the same, set cached_ntc to
first_desc so that at the end, when freeing/recycling buffers,
descriptors from first to ntc are not missed.
