[PATCH 4.4 014/192] [PATCH 014/135] ixgbe: Fix handling of NAPI budget when multiple queues are enabled per vector

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Sep 12 2016 - 13:05:36 EST


4.4-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

[ Upstream commit 5d6002b7b822c7423e75d4651e6790bfb5642b1b ]

This patch corrects an issue in which the polling routine would increase
the budget for Rx to at least 1 per queue if multiple queues were present.
This would result in Rx packets being processed when the budget was 0 which
is meant to indicate that no Rx can be handled.
