In gem_rx_refill rx_prepared_head is incremented at the beginning of the while loop preparing the skb and data buffers. If the skb or data buffer allocation fails, this BD will be unusable BDs until the head loops back to the same BD (and obviously buffer allocation succeeds). In the unlikely event that there's a string of allocation failures, there will be an equal number of unusable BDs and an inconsistent RX BD chain. Hence increment the head at the end of the while loop to be clean.

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.
