[PATCH 2/5 next] net: vertexcom: mse102x: Silence TX timeout

From: Stefan Wahren
Date: Tue Aug 27 2024 - 15:11:10 EST


As long as the MSE102x is not operational, every packet transmission
will run into a TX timeout and flood the kernel log. So log only the
first TX timeout and a user is at least informed about this issue.
The amount of timeouts are still available via netstat.
