[PATCH net-next v2] dql: Reset the adjusted limit when resetting the queue

[Hungyu Lin]

dql_reset() restores limit to min_limit and clears the cumulative queue
and completion counts, but retains adj_limit from the previous queue
lifetime. dql_avail() therefore uses stale credit until the next nonzero
TX completion.

Reset adj_limit to limit as well so that adj_limit = limit +
num_completed also holds immediately after a reset.

Found by code inspection and reproduced with QEMU virtio-net TX ring
resizes, using identical reset/completion tracing in both test kernels.

Changes in v2:
- Target net-next and drop the stable Cc, as requested by Eric Dumazet.
- Add validation results; code unchanged from v1.

v1: https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/20261020230358.6649-1-dennylin0707@gmail.com/

Testing on Linux 7.4-rc1 (6628e7d4c6b):
QEMU virtio-net, TX ring resize 256 -> 128, and real UDP/TCP traffic.
With a low-priority UDP burst followed by a high-priority probe and
QEMU tx=timer,x-txtimer=5000000,x-txburst=1, median probe RTT was
349.15 ms before and 12.09 ms after the change (12 trials per version).
No consistent TCP throughput gain was observed, including 64 MiB
transfers with normal TX service.

Rebased onto net-next fa5196392691; the ARM64 W=1 DQL object build
and strict checkpatch passed.
