Hmm maybe. Another idea: isn't virtio_net_tx_complete called
with length 0 here? Are there other cases where length is 0?

btw this sounds like you are asking it to reset some state.

and then

    ret = virtio_net_flush_tx(q);
    if (ret >= n->tx_burst)


will reschedule automatically won't it?

also why check in virtio_net_flush_tx and not virtio_net_tx_complete?
