Also set bit 12 which disabled the RX FIFO clear function when setting up
MAC MCR, as MediaTek SDK did the same change stating:
"If without this patch, kernel might receive invalid packets that are
corrupted by GMAC."[1]
This fixes issues with <= 1G speed where we could previously observe
about 30% packet loss while the bad packet counter was increasing.
