The RX ring descriptors control field is used for setting
SOF and EOF (start of frame and end of frame).
The SOF and EOF weren't cleared from the previous descriptors,
causing inconsistencies in ring buffer.
Fix that by clearing the control field of every descriptors we're
processing.

v2:
  * change function name to rx_desc_clear_control as proposed by
      Jason Wang
  * Move the function call above the comment, as proposed by
