So here is the offender:

 => __raise_softirq_irqoff
 => __napi_schedule
 => rtl8152_runtime_resume.isra.0
 => rtl8152_resume
 => usb_resume_interface.isra.0
 => usb_resume_both
 => __rpm_callback
 => rpm_callback
 => rpm_resume
 => __pm_runtime_resume
 => usb_autoresume_device
 => usb_remote_wakeup
 => hub_event
 => process_one_work
 => worker_thread
 => kthread
 => ret_from_fork
 => ret_from_fork_asm

It is calling napi_schedule() from a non-interrupt. And since
____napi_schedule() assumes to be called from an interrupt, it
raises the softirq accordingly without waking up ksoftirqd.

Can you try the following fix (untested, sorry...) ?
