WDMA_RING_TX(0) is required to set MTK_WED_WDMA_RING_TX for WED RX
but on a non-DBDC MT7986 it is never setup because idx is 1.
Setting MTK_WED_WDMA_RING_TX with WDMA_RING_TX(1) is not feasible because
WED still tries to send through WDMA_RING_TX(0). This is verified with
register dump.
Fix this by calling mtk_wed_wdma_tx_ring_setup if WDMA_RING_TX(0) is not
setup and guard it with mtk_wed_is_v2.

net:ethernet: mtk_wed: setup WDMA_RING_TX(0) for non-DBDC MT7986
This commit updates mtk_wed_start() to configure WDMA_RING_TX(0) on
non-DBDC MT7986 devices. It adds a call to mtk_wed_wdma_tx_ring_setup()
for v2 hardware if the descriptor is not yet set up.

[Severity: High]
This isn't a bug introduced by this patch, but does this loop need to check
the return value of mtk_wed_wdma_rx_ring_setup()?
If mtk_wed_wdma_rx_ring_setup() returns -ENOMEM, the hardware registers are
not programmed, but mtk_wed_start() continues execution and enables DMA.
Could this lead to hardware DMA using an uninitialized ring base address?

[Severity: High]
Are there similar error handling concerns with this new call to
mtk_wed_wdma_tx_ring_setup()?
Like the RX path, if dma_alloc_coherent() fails inside this setup function,
it returns -ENOMEM without programming the hardware registers.
Since mtk_wed_start() doesn't check this return value, it will proceed to
enable hardware DMA, which might attempt to use an uninitialized DMA address.
[Severity: High]
Does the check for !dev->tx_wdma[0].desc prevent necessary hardware
initialization after a warm reset?
When the WLAN driver triggers a hardware reset, the WED hardware registers
are cleared, and mtk_wed_start() is called again.
Because dev->tx_wdma[0].desc was allocated during the initial start, the
guard will evaluate to false, skipping the hardware register reprogramming
for tx_wdma[0].
Will the hardware DMA end up using a zeroed ring base address after a reset?
