Commit Message

Current code prefetches cache lines for the received frame first, and
then dma_sync_single_for_cpu() against this frame, this is wrong.
Cache prefetch should be triggered after dma_sync_single_for_cpu().

This patch brings ~2.8% driver performance improvement in a TCP RX
throughput test with iPerf tool on a single isolated Cortex-A65 CPU
core, 2.84 Gbits/sec increased to 2.92 Gbits/sec.
