We could see an obvious race condition by test that the former write operation by IDMAC aiming to clear OWN bit reach right after the later configuration of the same desc, which makes the IDMAC be in SUSPEND state as the OWN bit was cleared by the asynchronous write operation of IDMAC. The bug can be very easy reproduced on RK3288 or similar when lowering the bandwidth of bus and aggravating the Qos to make the large numbers of IP fight for the priority. One possible replaceable solution may be alloc dual buff for the desc to avoid it but could still race each other theoretically.
