[PATCH 07/20] net: stmmac: Clear descriptors before initializing them

[Serge Semin]

According to the methods naming and partly based on their semantics the
descriptors need to be cleared first, then they can be properly
initialized. That specifically concerns the Tx descriptors and the chain
mode. Moreover doing the Rx-descriptors clearance twice is redundant. Fix
all of that by discarding the Rx descriptor clearance from the
init_dma_rx_desc_rings() method and move the generic method of all
descriptors clearance to the head of the init_dma_desc_rings() function.
