My understanding is that on rx empty avail means no free descriptors
from the perspective of host so the ring is conceptually full.

That codes are added for the case that busypoll is waiting for rx vq
avail but interrupted by another work. At the point of patch 3 busypoll
does not wait for rx vq avail so I don't think we move them to patch 3.
