It would be useful to explain how this problem was discovered,
and what testing the patch has seen. Please add an Assisted-by
tag if appropriate.

The same check seems to have been added to both arms of the if/else
condition. So it seems to me that it could be moved out of that condition.

I would suggest placing it below the existing rx_irq/tx_irq condition
which appears a few lines below this hunk so that those and
dma_regs errors are still propagated.
