In the current implementation, delay timeout is enabled only for
has_axieth_connected usecase. For ethernet, we need real-time processing
while still having benefit of interrupt coalescing. Example: In RX interrupt
coalescing is set to 0x3.  Without delay timeout, DMA engine will wait for
all frames and then issue completion interrupt. In ethernet usecase, this
can introduce huge latencies. Delay timeout interrupt will trigger if delay
time period has expired and we can notify dma client with received frames.

The second case is added to keep the previous implementation as is.(i.e when
Delay timeout interrupt is not enabled - move all active desc to done list). 
Sure I will add a description for it in the commit log.
