[PATCH 2/6] net: calxedaxgmac: remove explicit rx dma buffer polling

From: Rob Herring
Date: Fri Oct 12 2012 - 11:15:24 EST


From: Rob Herring <rob.herring@xxxxxxxxxxx>

New received frames will trigger the rx DMA to poll the DMA descriptors,
so there is no need to tell the h/w to poll. We also want to enable
dropping frames from the fifo when there is no buffer.
