The only time that software should write to the TDH register
is after a reset (hardware reset or CTRL.RST) and
before enabling the transmit function (TXDCTL.ENABLE).
If software were to write to this register while the transmit
function was enabled, the on-chip descriptor buffers might
be invalidated and the hardware could become confused.

I try to understand why this patch is going to fix above commit. 
seems the commit didn't change the register write order, and even if we go much early I saw the TDH register is always be written after TXDCTL.ENABL.
Did I missed something?
btw, I'm also curious why only TDH matters but TDT does not.

Hi, qi
I don't understand why dose this patch not change register  write order.  THD is write before  TXDCTL.ENABL.

The Intel 82599 data sheet (https://www.intel.com/content/dam/www/public/us/en/documents/datasheets/82599-10-gbe-controller-datasheet.pdf, §8.2.3.9.8) states that "The only time that software should write to [the TDH] register is after a reset (hardware reset or CTRL.RST) and before enabling the transmit function (TXDCTL.ENABLE). If software were to write to this register while the transmit function was enabled, the on-chip descriptor buffers might be invalidated and the hardware could become confused". 

Regard
yanglong
