Dmitry Bogdanov be6cef69ba net: aquantia: fix out of memory condition on rx side
On embedded environments with hard memory limits it is a normal although
rare case when skb can't be allocated on rx part under high traffic.

In such OOM cases napi_complete_done() was not called.
So the napi object became in an invalid state like it is "scheduled".
Kernel do not re-schedules the poll of that napi object.

Consequently, kernel can not remove that object the system hangs on
`ifconfig down` waiting for a poll.

We are fixing this by gracefully closing napi poll routine with correct
invocation of napi_complete_done.

This was reproduced with artificially failing the allocation of skb to
simulate an "out of memory" error case and check that traffic does
not get stuck.

README

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
