The problem could be that the driver isn't checking the
napi_complete_done() return code. It was changed to return a bool and
the check should be more like:
if ((processed != budget) && napi_complete_done(napi, processed)) {
If it returns false, then the driver will get called for polling again
after having issued enable_irq() and it well then issue the enable_irq()
a second (or more) time without having the matching diable_irq().
