[ Upstream commit 78034cbece79c2d730ad0770b3b7f23eedbbecf5 ]
This commit fixes tmfifo console stuck issue when the virtual
networking interface is in down state. In such case, the network
Rx descriptors runs out and causes the Rx network packet staying
in the head of the tmfifo thus blocking the console packets. The
fix is to drop the Rx network packet when no more Rx descriptors.
Function name mlxbf_tmfifo_release_pending_pkt() is also renamed
to mlxbf_tmfifo_release_pkt() to be more approperiate.

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.
