Subject: [PATCH v2] drivers: net: xgene: fix Tx flow control

Currently the Tx flow control is based on reading the hardware state,
which is not accurate since it may not reflect the descriptors that
are not yet reached the memory.

To accurately control the Tx flow, changing it to be software based.

Signed-off-by: Iyappan Subramanian <isubramanian@....com>

v2: Address v1 review comments
	- Removed use of atomic_t
	- Added tx_level and txc_level counters to pdata

v1: Initial version
