this refresh statement was originally present in the original patch: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20221121191437.996297-2-shr@xxxxxxxxxxxx/ it has been removed with no explanation in v6: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20230201222254.744422-2-shr@xxxxxxxxxxxx/ it is important to make the refresh for multishot request because if no new requests using the same NAPI device are added to the ring, the entry will become stall and be removed silently and the unsuspecting user will not know that his ring made busy polling for only 60 seconds.
