Clear transmit error
01 transition: Clear transmit error.
Clears out conditions in the transmit packet processor that 
have caused the processor to stop and require assistance 
from software before the processor can be restarted (for 
example, an AHB bus error or the TXBUFNR bit set in the 
Ethernet Interrupt Status register). 
Toggle this bit from low to high to restart the transmit 
packet processor.
