The definition of static_key_slow_inc() has cpus_read_lock in place. In the
virtio_net driver, XPS queues are initialized after setting the queue:cpu
affinity in virtnet_set_affinity() which is already protected within
cpus_read_lock. Lockdep prints a warning when we are trying to acquire
cpus_read_lock when it is already held.
This patch adds an ability to call __netif_set_xps_queue under
cpus_read_lock().
