Find attached a Bestcomm instruction set summary sheet from the

> Initialising the task, resetting and enabling works fine. Even request_irq reports no error, but when I start a transfer it hangs and if I am lucky, an interrupt occurs after quite some time. But it's always the BestComm ethernet rx task which produces an RFIFO interrupt, presumably after the watchdog catches on.
