Subject: [PATCH net-next 12/12] igc: Increase timeout value for Speed 100/1000/2500

From: Muhammad Husaini Zulkifli <muhammad.husaini.zulkifli@...el.com>

As the cycle time is set to maximum of 1s, the TX Hang timeout need to
be increase to avoid possible TX Hang.

There is no dedicated number specific in data sheet for the timeout factor.
Timeout factor was determined during the debugging to solve the "Tx Hang"
issues that happen in some cases mainly during ETF(Earliest TxTime First).

This can be test by using TSN Schedule Tx Tools udp_tai sample application.
