[ofa-general] [PATCH] IPoIB: Optimizations in poll handler.

Final follow-up optimizations: If the poll loop executes more than
once (and it happens on my system with two flood pings):
	- no need to calculate "budget - done" on every iteration (but
		will require to do this once, when returning from fn)
	- check for one variable being non-zero instead of comparing two
		vars for every iteration.
