Commit 1fbe4b46caca "net: pktgen: kill the Wait for kthread_stop

__set_current_state(TASK_RUNNING) and I didn't notice the previous
set_current_state(TASK_INTERRUPTIBLE). This triggers the warning
in __might_sleep() after return.

Afaics, we can simply remove both set_current_state()'s, and we
could do this a long ago right after ef87979c273a2 "pktgen: better
scheduler friendliness" which changed pktgen_thread_worker() to
use wait_event_interruptible_timeout().

Interesting that it didn't happen in my tests yet per description it
should have. Huang, did you do anything special to trigger this?
