commit a3a57bf07de23fe1ff779e0fdf710aa581c3ff73 ("net: stmmac: work around sporadic tx issue on link-up") worked around a problem with TX sometimes not working after a link-up by avoiding a redundant write to MAC_CTRL_REG (aka GMAC_CONFIG), since the IP appeared to have problems with handling multiple writes to that register in some cases. That commit however only added the work around to dwmac_lib.c (apart from the common code in stmmac_main.c), but my systems with version 4.21a of the IP exhibit the same problem, so add the work around to dwmac4_lib.c too.
