[PATCH net 4/7] ibmvnic: account for bufs already saved in indir_buf

From: Sukadev Bhattiprolu <hidden>
Date: 2021-06-24 04:14:02
Subsystem: ibm power sriov virtual nic device driver, linux for powerpc (32-bit and 64-bit), networking drivers, the rest · Maintainers: Haren Myneni, Rick Lindsley, Madhavan Srinivasan, Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

This fixes a crash in replenish_rx_pool() when called from ibmvnic_poll()
after a previous call to replenish_rx_pool() encountered an error when
allocating a socket buffer.

Thanks to Rick Lindsley and Dany Madden for helping debug the crash.

Fixes: 4f0b6812e9b9 ("ibmvnic: Introduce batched RX buffer descriptor transmission")
