Right. I am going to do that.

Yes, you typically have a match between channels and queues.
But I can use RXQCNT of course, I agree.

Yes, currently stmmac only supports 1 Channel. Bt it needs this feature if the
hardware is multi-channel. The hardware I have is multi-channel and so you have
to enable RX queue for it to work and that's why I made this fix.
In the future I will develope multi channel support for stmmac and this RX queue
enable will be already made.
