Sagi Grimberg <sagig@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> points out that a steady stream of CQ events could starve other work because of the boundless loop pooling in rpcrdma_{send,recv}_poll(). Instead of a (potentially infinite) while loop, return after collecting a budgeted number of completions. Note that the total number of WCs that can be handled during one upcall is RPCRDMA_WC_BUDGET * 2, since the handler polls once before and once after re-enabling completion notifications.
