This patch doesn't look right. I think the existing code works
as written.
If send_receive_completions is unable to send because ring is full
then vmbus_sendpacket will return -EBUSY which gets returns
from send_receive_completions. Because the return is non-zero,
the driver will not call napi_complete_done.
Since napi_complete_done was not called, NAPI will reschedule
the napi poll routine.
