Should i try to get a debug print out of the actual 'weight' and
'work' integers, and of the n->poll function address?
ok, i've added such a patch.
looking at the dev.c code - can napi_struct->weight be zero
legitimately? If yes then the 0 gets passed to the driver and the
driver would return 1 - violating the assertion.

[ 186.718210] work: 65, weight: 64
[ 186.721414] ->poll: (nv_napi_poll+0x0/0x760)
so nv_napi_poll() returned with 65. How is that possible? Ah ...:
(rx_processed_cnt++ < limit)) {
that should be:
(++rx_processed_cnt < limit)) {
right? Find the fix below.

Would the attached patch be ok with people?
It's basically the same thing, except that it aligns a bit more closely
with forcedeth rework stuff I'm doing.
I'll send upstream today unless people scream...
