Toshiaki Makita 127bda4b09 virtio_net: Disable interrupts if napi_complete_done rescheduled napi
[ Upstream commit fdaa767aef ]

Since commit 39e6c8208d ("net: solve a NAPI race") napi has been able
to be rescheduled within napi_complete_done() even in non-busypoll case,
but virtnet_poll() always enabled interrupts before complete, and when
napi was rescheduled within napi_complete_done() it did not disable
interrupts.
This caused more interrupts when event idx is disabled.

According to commit cbdadbbf0c ("virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ
processing") we cannot place virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare() after
NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared, so disable interrupts again if
napi_complete_done() returned false.

Tested with vhost-user of OVS 2.7 on host, which does not have the event
idx feature.

============

This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst

Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users.
These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
