    The new enh_desc is used for selecting the enhanced descriptors
    structure. There are several scenarios; some chips (mac10/100
    or gmac) want to use the enhanced descriptors; others want the normal
    ones.
    For example, on ST platforms: MAC10/100 uses the normal desc structure
    and the GMAC uses the enhanced one.
    It can be useful to get this information from the platform.
    This could also be decided at run-time looking at the chip's ID number;
    but it could happen that chips with the same ID want to use different
    descriptor structure.
