[PATCH net 04/13] net: stmmac: dwmac-sun8i: Don't modify chain-mode module parameter

Doing so activates the chain-mode for any DW MAC-based NIC on the platform
no matter with what parameter the module is loaded. Even if there is no
any other network controller on the SoC it is logically incorrect.
