FIX for controller stop passing
traffic
31:21 RW 0 Fix the controller stop passing traffic when flow
control is enabled. It appears that the chip can
get stuck in a permanent XOFF state under
heavy bi-directional netperf traffic when flow
control is enabled.
Fix in A1 for Rx discard counter
update in offset x2250 when
multicast/unicast/broadcast
packets are dropped
