Subject: [PATCH v3] net: stmmac: fix a possible endless loop

It forgot to reduce the value of the variable retry in a while loop
in the ethqos_configure() function. It may cause an endless loop and
without timeout.

Hi David, I'm so sorry for that.

v3:
remove an empty line between Fixes and other tags.

v2:
add an appropriate Fixes tag.
