thunderbolt: Allow batching of descriptors
The hardware allows queueing descriptors ahead of updating producer/consumer fields. This way it is possible to avoid unnecessary register writes on hot-paths such as when transferring networking packets. For this reason introduce an API that allows Thunderbolt service drivers to opt-in for this and take advantage of batching.
