From 5ef827526fc01820a7a80827802e9fad3f34f937 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Rusty Russell Date: Fri, 2 May 2008 21:50:43 -0500 Subject: virtio: ignore corrupted virtqueues rather than spinning. A corrupt virtqueue (caused by the other end screwing up) can have strange results such as a driver spinning: just bail when we try to get a buffer from a known-broken queue.
