Description

The error handling in AF_PACKET packet loop function can lead to an exit of the function which should not happen. This could then lead to capture not being working.

The error case (mostly triggered by memory pressure) can be handled without setting the interface to down but should just increase a counter instead

This will be a backport of #2633
