[ Upstream commit e95d22c69b2c130ccce257b84daf283fd82d611e ]
The IBM virtual ethernet driver's polling function continues to process frames after rescheduling NAPI, resulting in a warning if it exhausted its budget. Do not restart polling after calling napi_reschedule. Instead let frames be processed in the following instance.
