You forgot to tag the subject prefix with 'net', but its quite obvious
this should go through the net fixes tree.

Part of me wonders if there is a problem with just calling
rtl_init_rxcfg() here unconditionally.

So based on version, we're going to do a different write, depending on
which hardware.
Without knowing the hardware, I can't tell if there could be side
effects from this write that are a problem on certain revisions... But
if there aren't, it seems better to call rtl_init_rxcfg unconditionally
just to ensure that the register is properly initialized. It could
potentially prevent finding the same issue on another revision in the
future.
Either way, this is obviously a fix for the given revision so I don't
see a reason to hold that up:
