4.9-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
[ Upstream commit e95d22c69b2c130ccce257b84daf283fd82d611e ]
The IBM virtual ethernet driver's polling function continues
to process frames after rescheduling NAPI, resulting in a warning
if it exhausted its budget. Do not restart polling after calling
napi_reschedule. Instead let frames be processed in the following
instance.
