When virtio-net is used with the socket netdev backend, the backend
can be busy and not able to collect new packets.
In this case, net_socket_receive() returns 0 and registers a poll function
to detect when the socket is ready again.
In virtio_net_tx_bh(), virtio_net_flush_tx() forwards the 0, the virtio
notifications are disabled and the function is not re-scheduled, waiting
for the backend to be ready.
When the socket netdev backend is again able to send packets, the poll
function re-starts to flush remaining packets. This is done by
calling virtio_net_tx_complete(). It re-enables notifications and calls
again virtio_net_flush_tx().
But it seems if virtio_net_flush_tx() reaches the tx_burst value all
the queue is not flushed and no new notification is sent to re-schedule
virtio_net_tx_bh(). Nothing re-start to flush the queue and remaining
packets are stuck in the queue.
To fix that, detect in virtio_net_tx_complete() if virtio_net_flush_tx()
has been stopped by tx_burst and if yes re-schedule the bottom half
function virtio_net_tx_bh() to flush the remaining packets.
This is what is done in virtio_net_tx_bh() when the virtio_net_flush_tx()
is synchronous, and completly by-passed when the operation needs to be
asynchronous.
