> 
> When forwarding or releasing events, the operation would fail if the port
> has 0 inflight credits and cannot acquire more, or the inflight count
> exceeds the port's new event threshold.
> 
> This patch fixes that by counting the number of new events in the burst,
> and applying the credit and new event threshold checks accordingly.
