When monitor block in Hardware experiences internal backpressure, a ring entry with the EMPTY_DESC reason is received in the monitor destination ring descriptor. The cookie field for this corresponding entry is invalid. Currently driver attempts to process this cookie resulting in invalid buf_id warning logs flooding the console. To fix this, skip processing the destination descriptor when the EMPTY_DESCRIPTOR bit is set to true in ring descriptor, thereby avoiding the processing of junk cookies.
