If the DesignWare MAC is synthesised with MMC RX IPC Counter, an unmanaged
and unacknowledged interrupt is generated after some time of operation. To
my knowledge there is no way to autodetect this configuration.

This patch adds a Kconfig option to tell the driver about the counter which
in turn masks the undesired interrupts.
