[PATCH net-next v3 1/4] net: mvneta: avoid getting status from rx_desc as much as possible

In hot code path mvneta_rx_hwbm(), the rx_desc->status is read twice.
The rx_desc is allocated by dma_alloc_coherent, it's uncacheable if
the device isn't cache-coherent, reading from uncached memory is
fairly slow. So reuse the read out rx_status to avoid the second
reading from uncached memory.
