netc_mac_port_rmw() has checked whether the port is pseudo MAC. See
below.
static void netc_mac_port_rmw(struct netc_port *np, u32 reg,
u32 mask, u32 val)
{
u32 old, new;
if (is_netc_pseudo_port(np))
return;
[...]

netc_mac_port_rmw() also set preemption MAC if the port supports preemtion.
static void netc_mac_port_rmw(struct netc_port *np, u32 reg,
u32 mask, u32 val)
{
[...]
if (np->caps.pmac)
netc_port_wr(np, reg + NETC_PMAC_OFFSET, new);
}

NETC_PM_IEVENT[RX_EMPTY] is a read only bit. It will be cleared
if Rx FIFO not empty or Rx packet receive in process. And it will be
set if Rx FIFO is empty and no Rx packet receive in process.

For the pseudo ports, no need to check the PSR_RX_BUSY bit, only need
to set PCR_RXDIS bit to discard RX packets. I will improve it.

Okay, I will move the advertisement to the subsequent patch.
