virtio_net: do not reschedule rx refill forever
We currently fill all of RX ring, then add_buf returns ENOSPC, which gets mis-detected as an out of memory condition and causes us to reschedule the work, and so on forever. Fix this by oom = err == -ENOMEM; Signed-off-by: Michael S. Tsirkin <mst@redhat.com> Signed-off-by: Rusty Russell <rusty@rustcorp.com.au> Cc: stable@kernel.org # .34.x Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
