Before this patch, gve_rx_refill_dqo() is only called if the number of
packets received in a cycle is non-zero. However, in a
memory-constrained scenario, this doesn't behave well, as this could be
a potential source of lockup, if there is no memory and all buffers have
been received before memory is freed up for the driver to use.

This patch moves the gve_rx_refill_dqo() call to occur regardless of
whether packets have been received so that in the case that enough
memory is freed, the driver can recover.

Fixes: 45da16b5b18 ("net/gve: support for basic Rx data path for DQO")
