net: stmmac: add support for independent DMA pbl for tx/rx
GMAC and newer supports independent programmable burst lengths for DMA tx/rx. Add new optional devicetree properties representing this. To be backwards compatible, snps,pbl will still be valid, but snps,txpbl/snps,rxpbl will override the value in snps,pbl if set. If the IP is synthesized to use the AXI interface, there is a register and a matching DT property inside the optional stmmac-axi-config DT node for controlling burst lengths, named snps,blen. However, using this register, it is not possible to control tx and rx independently. Also, this register is not available if the IP was synthesized with, e.g., the AHB interface.
