Subject: [PATCH net v2] napi: fix race inside napi_enable

The process will cause napi.state to contain NAPI_STATE_SCHED and
not in the poll_list, which will cause napi_disable() to get stuck.

The prefix "NAPI_STATE_" is removed in the figure below, and
NAPI_STATE_HASHED is ignored in napi.state.

                      CPU0       |                   CPU1       | napi.state

    clear_bit(SCHED, &n->state); |                              | NPSVC

                                 |   {                          |
                                 |      if (n->state & (NPSVC | | (1)
                                 |               _BUSY_POLL)))  |
                                 |           return false;      |
                                 |     ................         |
                                 |   }                          | SCHED | NPSVC
                                 |                              |
    clear_bit(NPSVC, &n->state); |                              | SCHED
}                                |                              |
                                 |                              |
napi_schedule_prep()             |                              | SCHED | MISSED (2)

(1) Here return direct. Because of NAPI_STATE_NPSVC exists.
(2) NAPI_STATE_SCHED exists. So not add napi.poll_list to sd->poll_list

Since NAPI_STATE_SCHED already exists and napi is not in the
sd->poll_list queue, NAPI_STATE_SCHED cannot be cleared and will always
exist.

1. This will cause this queue to no longer receive packets.
2. If you encounter napi_disable under the protection of rtnl_lock, it
   will cause the entire rtnl_lock to be locked, affecting the overall
   system.

This patch uses cmpxchg to implement napi_enable(), which ensures that
there will be no race due to the separation of clear two bits.

Fixes: 2d8bff12699abc ("netpoll: Close race condition between poll_one_napi and napi_disable")
