Subject: [PATCH net-next 06/10] be2net: post full RXQ on interface enable
From: Suresh Reddy <Suresh.Reddy@...lex.com>
When an RXQ is created in be_open(), the driver currently posts only
64 buffers. This sometimes results in packet drops when there is a traffic
burst as soon as the interface is enabled.
This patch fixes this problem by posting the full RXQ on interface enable.
