From: Dengdui Huang <huangdeng...@huawei.com>

The data exceeds the pkt_len in mbuf is inavailable for user.
When KEEP CRC offload is enabled, CRC field length should be
included in the pkt_len in mbuf. However, almost of drivers
supported KEEP CRC feature didn't add the CRC data length to
pkt_len. So it is very necessary to add comments for this.

Fixes: 70815c9ecadd ("ethdev: add new offload flag to keep CRC")
