Thank you for all your reviews, very helpful.

I agree that tx_fifo_in_flight is and should always be a positive value.
However as the code is operating with ++ and -- exclusively I would
personally prefer int here as that shows off-by-one errors much easier
in case there are any at some point.

Is that fine for you?

Markus
