That was my initial attempt, but then I realized that for old DTBs,
stmmac_mtl_setup() will already exit prematurely because of the missing
snps,mtl-{rx,tx}-config properties. It's pretty much for the same reason
as the separate assignment of the default {rx,tx}_queues_to_use. In this
case it's somewhat more obfuscated, though. Changing AVB to be mode 0
means that plat->rx_queues_cfg[].mode_to_use will contain AVB as default
because plat is devm_kzalloc()'ed.

Effectively this change makes all queues use AVB by default unless they
are configured using the new device tree bindings.
