When enable three queues on imx6sx enet, and then do tx performance
test with iperf tool, after some time running, tx hang.
Found that:
If uDMA is running, software set TDAR may cause tx hang.
If uDMA is in idle, software set TDAR don't cause tx hang.
There is a TDAR race condition for mutliQ when the software sets TDAR
and the UDMA clears TDAR simultaneously or in a small window (2-4 cycles).
This will cause the udma_tx and udma_tx_arbiter state machines to hang.
The issue exist at i.MX6SX enet IP.
So, the Workaround is checking TDAR status four time, if TDAR cleared by
hardware and then write TDAR, otherwise don't set TDAR.
The patch is only one Workaround for the issue TKT210582.
