Subject: [PATCH 4.14 004/191] mlx4: handle non-napi callers to napi_poll

From: Jonathan Lemon <bsd@...com>

[ Upstream commit b2b8a92733b288128feb57ffa694758cf475106c ]

netcons calls napi_poll with a budget of 0 to transmit packets.
Handle this by:
 - skipping RX processing
 - do not try to recycle TX packets to the RX cache
