Thank you for the suggestion. I've reviewed the documentation, and setting the reuse flag while reusing descriptors might be a good optimization. I'll make the changes and run some tests. If everything works well, I'll submit a new patch.
To be clear if you're saying the driver is buggy and can crash right now we need to fix it first and then optimize it later, as separate commits. So that LTS kernels can backport the fix. The questions I'm asking are because I don't understand whether the upstream kernel is buggy and how exactly..
