Subject: [PATCH] net: macb: Apply RXUBR workaround only to versions with errata

The interrupt handler contains a workaround for RX hang applicable
to Zynq and AT91 only. Subsequent versions do not need this
workaround. This workaround unecessarily resets RX whenever RX used
bit read is observed, which can be often under heavy traffic. Hence
introduce an CAPS mask and a check to enable this workaround.

Changes from RFC:
- Use CAPS mask instead introducing and errata field.
- Use check only on RX reset part; ISR should still be cleared.

AT91RM9200 only. It's not the case for other AT91 SoCs (reading errata
list for them).

That being said I have to add a patch for making this perfectly clear in
the comment just above the flag's test.

Typo: unnecessarily

Nack for this one, see below...

As this interrupt routine is not doing anything else than just being
called now, what about just removing the use of this status bit for
platforms which don't need this RX reset?

Actually it seems not the proper configuration structure to modify: You
must change the emac_config instead.

Thanks for the review. I dint realize it was AT91RM9200, hence I edited
the wrong config structure. Will fix.

OK, sure I'll try that. I left the interrupt enabled just in case there were
other users performing an action/using this interrupt.
