Multiple EQs may share the same irq in subsequent patches. To avoid starvation, a budget is set per EQ's interrupt handler. Because of this change, it is no longer required to check that MLX5_NUM_SPARE_EQE eqes were polled (to detect that arm is required). It is guaranteed that MLX5_NUM_SPARE_EQE > budget, therefore the handler will arm and exit the handler before all the entries in the eq are polled. In the scenario where the handler is out of budget and there are more EQEs to poll, arming the EQ guarantees that the HW will send another interrupt and the handler will be called again.

README
Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
