For some reason we were carrying the budget value around between the various calls to napi->poll. If for example one of the drivers called had a bug in which it returned a non-zero value for work this could result in the budget value becoming negative. Rather than carry around a value of budget that is 0 or less we can instead just loop through and pass 0 to each napi->poll call. If any driver returns a value for work done that is non-zero then we can report that driver and continue rather than allowing a bad actor to make the budget value negative and pass that negative value to napi->poll. Note, the only actual change here is that instead of letting budget become negative we are keeping it at 0 regardless of the value returned for work since it should not be possible for the polling routine to do any actual work with a budget of 0. So if the polling routine returns a non-0 value we are just reporting it and continuing with a budget of 0 rather than letting that work value be subtracted from the budget of 0.
