Thanks for pointing this out. My intention was to use the polling
method, but I accidentally left behind some code from experimenting with
the interrupt method. While reverting those changes, I missed updating
this part of the code. Will fix this in the next revision. Sorry for the
error. Currently not seeing any timeout issues with polling method on
XGMAC IP. Also some spurios interrupts causing stall when using
the interrupt method in XGMAC.
