After napi_complete_done() is called when NAPI is polling in the
current process context, another NAPI may be scheduled and start
running in softirq on another CPU and may ring the doorbell before the
current CPU does. When combined with unnecessary rings when there is
no need to arm the CQ, it triggers error paths in the hardware.
This patch fixes this by calling napi_complete_done() after doorbell
rings. It limits the number of unnecessary rings when there is no need
to arm. MANA hardware specifies that there must be one doorbell ring
every 8 CQ wraparounds. This driver guarantees one doorbell ring as
soon as the number of consumed CQEs exceeds 4 CQ wraparounds. In
