napi: fix race inside napi_enable

The process will cause napi.state to contain NAPI_STATE_SCHED and
not in the poll_list, which will cause napi_disable() to get stuck.

The prefix "NAPI_STATE_" is removed in the figure below, and
NAPI_STATE_HASHED is ignored in napi.state.

napi_schedule_prep()             |                              | SCHED | MISSED (2)

(1) Here return direct. Because of NAPI_STATE_NPSVC exists.
(2) NAPI_STATE_SCHED exists. So not add napi.poll_list to sd->poll_list

Since NAPI_STATE_SCHED already exists and napi is not in the
sd->poll_list queue, NAPI_STATE_SCHED cannot be cleared and will always
exist.

1. This will cause this queue to no longer receive packets.
2. If you encounter napi_disable under the protection of rtnl_lock, it
   will cause the entire rtnl_lock to be locked, affecting the overall
   system.

This patch uses cmpxchg to implement napi_enable(), which ensures that
there will be no race due to the separation of clear two bits.
