Subject: bnx2x: fix napi poll return value for repoll
From: Govindarajulu Varadarajan <_govind@xxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit 24e579c8898aa641ede3149234906982290934e5 ]
With the commit d75b1ade567ffab ("net: less interrupt masking in NAPI") napi
repoll is done only when work_done == budget. When in busy_poll is we return 0
in napi_poll. We should return budget.
