eth: Fix spurious interrupt issues

The ethernet driver generates a lot of spurious interrupts.
These spurious interrupts have two sources:

1) The Mac Management Counter (MMC) module generates a lot of interrupts
   (GMI - bit 27 of the status register). Unfortunately the Interrupt
   enable register doesn't allow us to enable/disable it (bit 27 is
   reserved). Therefore the only way to mask this interrupt is to mask
   all the MMC interrupts (register REG_MMC_RX_INTR_MASK,
   REG_MMC_TX_INTR_MASK and REG_MMC_RX_IPC_INTR_MASK). By default
   these interrupts are not masked.

2) The RX interrupt is not correctly acknowledged. According to the
   datasheet, NIS is a sticky bit and must be cleared (by writing 1
   to this bit) each time a corresponding bit, which causes NIS to
   be set, is cleared.
