via-velocity: move residual free rx descriptors count register update
Updates of the RBRDU have two different meanings depending on their context: 1. the receiving process has not started - the value which is written into the RBRDU register is supposed to be the free rx descriptors count (rounded to a multiple of 4) 2. the receiving process is running - the value increments the count above (sic) The update is currently issued deep inside the rx replenish chain (see velocity_give_many_rx_descs). Let's propagate enough information to the caller so that the rx replenish functions do not depend on hardware any more. It is needed to perform the Rx/Tx buffers housekeeping when MTU changes.
