Subject: [PATCH net-next v5 0/2] netdevsim: add NAPI support

Add NAPI support to netdevsim and register its Rx queues with NAPI
instances. Then add a selftest using the new netdev Python selftest
infra to exercise the existing Netdev Netlink API, specifically the
queue-get API.

This expands test coverage and further fleshes out netdevsim as a test
device. It's still my goal to make it useful for testing things like
flow steering and ZC Rx.

-----
Changes since v4:
* Rebase

Changes since v3:
* Add missing ksft_exit() at end of test
* Check for queue-api at start of test and skip early
* Don't swallow exceptions and convert to skip

Changes since v2:
* Fix null-ptr-deref on cleanup path if netdevsim is init as VF
* Handle selftest failure if real netdev fails to change queues
* Selftest addremove_queue test case:
  * Skip if queues == 1
  * Changes either combined or rx queue depending on how the netdev is
    configured

Changes since v1:
* Use sk_buff_head instead of a list for per-rq skb queue
* Drop napi_schedule() if skb queue is not empty in napi poll
* Remove netif_carrier_on() in open()
* Remove unused page pool ptr in struct netdevsim
* Up the netdev in NetDrvEnv automatically
* Pass Netdev Netlink as a param instead of using globals
* Remove unused Python imports in selftest
