asix: fix infinite loop in rx_fixup()
At this point if skb->len happens to be 2, the subsequant skb_pull(skb, 4) call won't work and the skb->len won't be decreased and won't ever reach 0, resulting in an infinite loop. With an ASIX 88772 under heavy load, without this patch, rx_fixup() reaches an infinite loop in less than a minute. With this patch applied, no infinite loop even after hours of heavy load.
