Currently, the driver only enables RX interrupt to handle RX
packets and TX resources. Sometimes there is not RX traffic,
so the TX resource needs to wait for RX interrupt to free.
This situation will toggle the TX timeout watchdog when the MAC
TX ring has no more resources to transmit packets.
Therefore, enable TX interrupt to release TX resources at any time.
When I am verifying iperf3 over UDP, the network hangs.
Like the log below.

iperf3: error - the server has terminated
The network topology is FTGMAC connects directly to a PC.
UDP does not need to wait for ACK, unlike TCP.
Therefore, FTGMAC needs to enable TX interrupt to release TX resources instead
of waiting for the RX interrupt.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
