+Subject: [PATCH] net: dsa: tag_mtk: add padding for tx packets
+
+Padding for transmitted packets needs to account for the special tag.
+With not enough padding, garbage bytes are inserted by the switch at the
+end of small packets.
+
+Fixes: 5cd8985a1909 ("net-next: dsa: add Mediatek tag RX/TX handler")
