This patch introduces a helper nr_running_this_cpu() to return the number of runnable processes in current cpu. The first user will be net rx busy polling. It will use this to exit the busy loop when it finds more than one processes is runnable in current cpu. This can give us better performance of busy polling under heavy load.
