CQ consumer index doorbell FW is reasonably well tested with VAPI (and with
directed tests). It is also relatively straight-forward code so I would
suspect a driver problem first of all.

Unfortunately once the overrun happends I can not bring the interface
down nor unload the ip over ib module (both commands hang) so I have to
reboot. This is slowing me down considerably.
Do you have an idea why is that, and how to fix this problem?
