The guest may enter into state of no receive descriptors,
and if there is no interrupt, the descriptor filling function
has no chance to run again,which causes network stall. According
to liunux driver's implementation, the descriptor with EL bit set
must not be touched by hardware, usually, the buffer size of this
descriptor is set to 0.
