Yes, the "Fixes" tag is correct. Here CQE_RX_COALESCED_4 is rearranged to make it easier to read, but it doesn't change the behavior.

The previous patch (3409e0f172f6 ) introduced variable "i", an index to completion CQEs. But both 'default' and 'CQE_RX_TRUNCATED' cases don't advance "i", hence not advance to next CQE on error.

The fatal CQE error means the "default" case. On 'CQE_RX_TRUNCATED' the code can recover when all CQEs are read. But on "default", it's a dead loop.
