[ upstream commit 6ae91ac9a6 ]
We currently only add a notification CQE when the send succeded, i.e.
cqe.res >= 0. However, it'd be more robust to do buffer notifications
for failed requests as well in case drivers decide do something fanky.
Always return a buffer notification after initial prep, don't hide it.
This behaviour is better aligned with documentation and the patch also
helps the userspace to respect it.

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.
