Subject: [PATCH net-next 1/2] bnx2: Don't receive packets when the napi budget == 0


Processing any incoming packets with a with a napi budget of 0
is incorrect driver behavior.

This matters as netpoll will shortly call drivers with a budget of 0
to avoid receive packet processing happening in hard irq context.
