If an erroneous CQE is polled in the first iteration (i.e. npolled ==
0), we don't update the consumer index and hence the hardware could
get a wrong notion of how many CQEs software polled.  Fix this by
unconditionally updating the doorbell record.  We could change the
check to be something like

if (npolled || err != -EAGAIN)
...

but it does not seem worth the effort since a posted write to memory
should not cost too much.
