Subject: [ 62/72] jme: Fix FIFO flush issue

3.2-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Guo-Fu Tseng <cooldavid@...ldavid.org>

commit ba9adbe67e288823ac1deb7f11576ab5653f833e upstream.

Set the RX FIFO flush watermark lower.
According to Federico and JMicron's reply,
setting it to 16QW would be stable on most platforms.
Otherwise, user might experience packet drop issue.
