TXnHDP
Transmit channel n DMA Head Descriptor pointer. Writing a transmit DMA buffer descriptor address
to a head pointer location initiates transmit DMA operations in the queue for the selected channel.
Writing to these locations when they are nonzero is an error (except at reset). Host software must
initialize these locations to zero on reset.
