+ * From QUICC Engine Block Reference Manual, Chap 8.9:
+ * This command is used to set a timeout value for the Ethernet receiver
+ * interrupt coalescing mechanism.
+ * The timeout period is measured from the time that the last Ethernet frame
+ * was received. When the timeout expires, an interrupt is issued to the CPU
+ * even if the interrupt coalescing counter did not reach its maximum value. The
+ * timeout value should be written in the two least significant bytes of CECDR,
+ * and it should be specified in terms of serial clocks.
+ * For example, a value of 1000 in CECDR sets the timeout period to 1000 serial
+ * clocks.
