Thanks for the review. This code is related to the commit message.
macb_pad_and_fcs is performed on the same packets on which
TX_NOCRC is set (instruct HW not to perform CRC and perform
CRC in SW). This is the patch which added both:
https://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/netdev/net-next.git/commit/drivers/net/ethernet/cadence?id=653e92a9175ea7ed67efe209c725222051a3713d
I'll mention the same in Fixes tag and also add Claudiu's review tag.

Regards,
Harini
