Subject: [PATCH (net-next.git)] STMMAC: fix TX Normal descriptor

On top of the Oct_2015 driver version committed into net-next, this patch
fixes a problem for the HW where the normal descriptor are used at runtime
instead of the Enhanced/Alternate descriptors.
In the beginning, it was suggested to revert the patch:
  "stmmac: first frame prep at the end of xmit routine"
and it has been noticed that w/o it the normal TDES 0 and 1 were good filled.

Then has been proposed this new fix (w/o reverting the patch above).

  stmmac: fix TX normal DESC
