[net-next PATCH v1 2/2] net: stmmac: dwmac-meson8b: make the RGMII TX delay configurable

Prior to this patch we were using a hardcoded RGMII TX clock delay of
1/4 cycle (= 2ns). This value works for many boards, but unfortunately
not for all (due to the way the actual circuit is designed, sometimes
because the TX delay is enabled in the PHY, etc.).
Making the TX delay on the MAC side configurable allows us to support
all possible hardware combinations (which may or not be out there).

This allows fixing a compatibility issue on some boards, where the
RTL8211F PHY is configured to generate the TX delay. We can now turn
off the TX delay in the MAC, because otherwise we would be applying the
delay twice (which results in non-working TX traffic).
