It's supposed to significantly improve performance but doesn't seem to
affect Northstar unfortunately. It seems only some other platforms were
limited because of this DMA setup mistake.

+Subject: [PATCH] bgmac: stop clearing DMA receive control register right after
+ it is set
+
+Current bgmac code initializes some DMA settings in the receive control
+register for some hardware and then immediately clears those settings.
+Not clearing those settings results in ~420Mbps *improvement* in
+throughput; this system can now receive frames at line-rate on Broadcom
+5871x hardware compared to ~520Mbps today.  I also tested a few other
+values but found there to be no discernible difference in CPU
+utilization even if burst size and prefetching values are different.
+
+On the hardware tested there was no need to keep the code that cleared
+all but bits 16-17, but since there is a wide variety of hardware that
+used this driver (I did not look at all hardware docs for hardware using
+this IP block), I find it wise to move this call up and clear bits just
+after reading the default value from the hardware rather than completely
+removing it.
+
+This is a good candidate for -stable >=3.14 since that is when the code
+that was supposed to improve performance (but did not) was introduced.
