Correct, I am enabling AV only. What you are saying makes perfect sense. What
about adding a variable to plat in order to configure the RX queue type?
Example:
plat->rx_queue_type = RX_QUEUE_DCB or plat->rx_queue_type = RX_QUEUE_AV

According to the databook, these values are always reset, but we can force it to
clear as you suggest.

Yes, you are absolutely correct. Since I am using gmac4, I forgot that stmmac
can use other types.
