net: lantiq_xrx200: fix lock under memory pressure
[ Upstream commit c4b6e9341f930e4dd089231c0414758f5f1f9dbd ]
When the xrx200_hw_receive() function returns -ENOMEM, the NAPI poll
function immediately returns an error.
This is incorrect for two reasons:
* the function terminates without enabling interrupts or scheduling NAPI,
* the error code (-ENOMEM) is returned instead of the number of received
packets.
After the first memory allocation failure occurs, packet reception is
locked due to disabled interrupts from DMA..
