When processing a PENDING buffer with no attached aob, the current code would get stuck on this buffer (as the 'continue' causes us to not advance the buffer index) and process it repeatedly until the loop terminates eventually. Luckily this should never happen - the HW must not use the PENDING state when no aob was provided. But we can still make this code path less fragile and protect against buggy devices.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
