commit 195af57914d15229186658ed26dab24b9ada4122 upstream.
In bnxt_poll_p5(), we first check cpr->has_more_work. If it is true,
we are in NAPI polling mode and we will call __bnxt_poll_cqs() to
continue polling. It is possible to exhanust the budget again when
__bnxt_poll_cqs() returns.
We then enter the main while loop to check for new entries in the NQ.
If we had previously exhausted the NAPI budget, we may call
__bnxt_poll_work() to process an RX entry with zero budget. This will
cause packets to be dropped unnecessarily, thinking that we are in the
netpoll path. Fix it by breaking out of the while loop if we need
to process an RX NQ entry with no budget left. We will then exit
NAPI and stay in polling mode.
Fixes: 389a877a3b20 ("bnxt_en: Process the NQ under NAPI continuous polling.")

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.
