[PATCH 1/2] net: dsa: ksz: pad frame to 64 bytes for transmission

[Jean Pihet <jean.pihet@newoldbits.com>]

Some ethernet controllers (e.g. TI CPSW) pad the frames to a minimum
of 64 bytes before the FCS is appended. This causes an issue with the
KSZ tail tag which could not be the last byte before the FCS.
Solve this by padding the frame to 64 bytes minus the tail tag size,
before the tail tag is added and the frame is passed for transmission.
