Sasha Neftin c0f4b163a0 e1000e: fix the use of magic numbers for buffer overrun issue 
This is a follow on to commit b10effb92e ("fix buffer overrun while the
 I219 is processing DMA transactions") to address David Laights concerns
about the use of "magic" numbers.  So define masks as well as add
additional code comments to give a better understanding of what needs to
be done to avoid a buffer overrun.

README 

Linux kernel
============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

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.
