Talked with Thinh about this sometime back about why 6 was picked.  It
was just an arbitrary setting we decided on throughout our testing, as
that was what provided the best tput numbers for our system.  Hence why
it was suggested to have a separate property, so other vendors can set
this to accommodate their difference in HW latencies.

If tx-fifo-resize is not enabled, then there shouldn't be anything that
will reference this property.  As mentioned in the previous comment, HW
vendors may not need a FIFO size of 6 max packets for their particular
system, so they should be able to program this to their needs.

If someone programs to this a large number, the logic works where it
will allocate based off the space left after ensuring enough space for 1
FIFO per ep.
