net: dev: Make rps_lock() disable interrupts.
Disabling interrupts and in the RPS case locking input_pkt_queue is split into local_irq_disable() and optional spin_lock(). This breaks on PREEMPT_RT because the spinlock_t typed lock can not be acquired with disabled interrupts. The sections in which the lock is acquired is usually short in a sense that it is not causing long und unbounded latiencies. One exception is the skb_flow_limit() invocation which may invoke a BPF program (and may require sleeping locks). By moving local_irq_disable() + spin_lock() into rps_lock(), we can keep interrupts disabled on !PREEMPT_RT and enabled on PREEMPT_RT kernels. Without RPS on a PREEMPT_RT kernel, the needed synchronisation happens as part of local_bh_disable() on the local CPU. ____napi_schedule() is only invoked if sd is from the local CPU. Replace it with __napi_schedule_irqoff() which already disables interrupts on PREEMPT_RT as needed. Move this call to rps_ipi_queued() and rename the function to napi_schedule_rps as suggested by Jakub.
