[dpdk-dev] [PATCH 03/31] net/bnxt: Rx processing optimization

[Ajit Khaparde]

1) Use nb_rx_pkts instead of checking producer indices of Rx and
aggregator rings to decide if any Rx completions were processed.
2) Post Rx buffers early in Rx processing instead of waiting for
the budgeted burst quota.
3) Ring Rx CQ DB after Rx buffers are posted.
