octeontx2-af: Re-enable MAC TX in otx2_stop processing

[ Upstream commit 818ed893 ]

During QoS scheduling testing with multiple strict priority flows, the
netdev tx watchdog timeout routine is invoked when a low priority QoS
queue doesn't get a chance to transmit the packets because other high
priority flows are completely subscribing the transmit link. The netdev
tx watchdog timeout routine will stop MAC RX and TX functionality in
otx2_stop() routine before cleanup of HW TX queues which results in SMQ
flush errors because the packets belonging to low priority queues will
never gets flushed since MAC TX is disabled. This patch fixes the issue
by re-enabling MAC TX to ensure the packets in HW pipeline gets flushed
properly.

Fixes: a7faa68b
