virtio_net: fix race in RX VQ processing virtio net called virtqueue_enable_cq on RX path after napi_complete, so with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear - outside the implicit napi lock. This violates the requirement to synchronize virtqueue_enable_cq wrt virtqueue_add_buf. In particular, used event can move backwards, causing us to lose interrupts. In a debug build, this can trigger panic within START_USE. Jason Wang reports that he can trigger the races artificially, by adding udelay() in virtqueue_enable_cb() after virtio_mb(). However, we must call napi_complete to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED before polling the virtqueue for used buffers, otherwise napi_schedule_prep in a callback will fail, causing us to lose RX events. To fix, call virtqueue_enable_cb_prepare with NAPI_STATE_SCHED set (under napi lock), later call virtqueue_poll with NAPI_STATE_SCHED clear (outside the lock).
