Subject: [net-next v2 08/15] ixgbevf: compare total_rx_packets and budget in ixgbevf_clean_rx_irq

From: Emil Tantilov <emil.s.tantilov@...el.com>

total_rx_packets is the number of packets we had cleaned, and budget is
the total number of packets that we could clean per poll. Instead of
altering both of these values we can save ourselves one write to memory by
just comparing total_rx_packets to the budget and as long as we are less
than budget we continue cleaning.

Also change the do{}while logic to while{} in order to avoid processing
packets when budget is 0.
