net: ppp: consume ringbuf until it is empty
ringbuf claim API returns pointer to contiguous area. In cases when data
in ringbuf wraps the end of internal buffer, then single call to claim
data is not enough to get all data - there is remaining part on the
beginning of internal buffer. Those remaining bytes will need to wait
for next ISR handler to trigger workqueue. Theoretically this means that
data on the beginning of ringbuf can wait there forever, or simply to
the next timeout in PPP stack when data traffic continues.
Consume data from ringbuf in a loop, stopping only when claiming results
in empty buffer. This will make sure that there is no stale data in the
ringbuf.
