net: macb: restart tx after tx used bit read [ Upstream commit 4298388574dae6168fa8940b3edc7ba965e8a7ab ] On some platforms (currently detected only on SAMA5D4) TX might stuck even the pachets are still present in DMA memories and TX start was issued for them. This happens due to race condition between MACB driver updating next TX buffer descriptor to be used and IP reading the same descriptor. In such a case, the "TX USED BIT READ" interrupt is asserted. GEM/MACB user guide specifies that if a "TX USED BIT READ" interrupt is asserted TX must be restarted. Restart TX if used bit is read and packets are present in software TX queue. Packets are removed from software TX queue if TX was successful for them (see macb_tx_interrupt()).
