On our hardware, the MACB connected to a heavilly used AXI bus, fails to correctly write RX descriptors.
This leds to RX ring errors that can be managed. These patchs add RX error management according to the Cadence MACB User Guide. The first patch separates the RX and TX rings init in order to reuse the RX ring init. v2: fix multiple assignments in first patch, fix checkpatch errors in second patch.
