Busy polling can now be handled in generic NAPI poll infrastructure.
This removes complexity and fast path overhead :
mlx4 used two spin_lock()/spin_unlock() pair per napi->poll() call
in mlx4_en_cq_lock_napi()/mlx4_en_cq_unlock_napi()
Tested:
Without busy polling :
lpaa23:~# echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/core/busy_read
lpaa24:~# echo 0 >/proc/sys/net/core/busy_read
lpaa23:~# ./netperf -H lpaa24 -t TCP_RR
