During PF-initiated resets iavf_clean_arq_element() has been observed to return success with a fully zeroed descriptor (opcode 0). These fell through to the default arm of the dispatch switch and produced a "Request 0 is not supported yet" log flood in the field.
Skip descriptors with opcode 0 so they are silently discarded and do not flood log.
