This patch breaks my Firefly RK3288 board. It appears that all of the
following are true:
* priv->plat->rx_fifo_size == 0
* priv->dma_cap.rx_fifo_size == 0
* priv->plat->tx_fifo_size == 0
* priv->dma_cap.tx_fifo_size == 0
Simply removing the "return -ENODEV" lines gets this platform working
again (and AFAICT matches the behaviour before this patch was applied).
I'm not sure whether this points to another bug causing these to
all be zero or if this is just an oversight. The below patch gets my
board working:

Subject: [PATCH] net: stmmac: Allow zero for [tr]x_fifo_size
Commit 8865d22656b4 ("net: stmmac: Specify hardware capability value
when FIFO size isn't specified") modified the behaviour to bail out if
both the FIFO size and the hardware capability were both set to zero.
However there are platforms out there (e.g. RK3288) where this is the
case which this breaks.
Remove the error return and use the dma_cap value as is.
Fixes: 8865d22656b4 ("net: stmmac: Specify hardware capability value when FIFO size isn't specified")
