Subject: net/mlx4_en: Fix bad WQE issue
From: Eugenia Emantayev <eugenia@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 6496bbf0ec481966ef9ffe5b6660d8d1b55c60cc upstream.
Single send WQE in RX buffer should be stamped with software
ownership in order to prevent the flow of QP in error in FW
once UPDATE_QP is called.
Fixes: 9f519f68cfff ('mlx4_en: Not using Shared Receive Queues')
