When signal is noisy, hardware can use all RX buffers and since the last
entry in the list is self-linked, it overwrites the entry until we link
new buffers.
Ensure that we don't free this last one until we are 100% sure that it
is not used by the hardware anymore to not cause memory curruption as
can be seen below.
This is done by checking next buffer in the list. Even after that we
know that the hardware refetched the new link and proceeded further
(the next buffer is ready) we can finally free the overwritten buffer.
We discard it since the status in its descriptor is overwritten (OR-ed
by new status) too.
