Extended RX buffer descriptors are necessary if they carry RX timestamps, which will be true when PTP timestamping is enabled. Right now, the rx_ring->ext_en is set from the function that allocates ring resources (enetc_alloc_rx_resources() -> enetc_alloc_rxbdr()), and also used later, in enetc_setup_rxbdr(). It is also used in the enetc_rxbd() and enetc_rxbd_next() fast path helpers. We want to decouple resource allocation from BD ring setup, but both procedures depend on BD size (extended or not). Move the "extended" boolean to enetc_open() and pass it both to the RX allocation procedure as well as to the RX ring setup procedure. The latter will set rx_ring->ext_en from now on.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
