net: stmmac: dwmac-socfpga: Set RX watchdog interrupt as broken
On DWMAC3 and later, there's a RX Watchdog interrupt that's used for interrupt coalescing. It's known to be buggy on some platforms, and dwmac-socfpga appears to be one of them. Changing the interrupt coalescing from ethtool doesn't appear to have any effect here. Without disabling RIWT (Received Interrupt Watchdog Timer, I believe...), we observe latencies while receiving traffic that amount to around ~0.4ms. This was discovered with NTP but can be easily reproduced with a simple ping.
