[PATCH net v2] net: core: make napi_disable more robust

There are chances that napi_disable can be called twice by NIC driver.
This could generate deadlock. For example,
the first napi_disable will spin until NAPI_STATE_SCHED is cleared
by napi_complete_done, then set it again.
When napi_disable is called the second time, it will loop infinitely
because no dev->poll will be running to clear NAPI_STATE_SCHED.

Though it is driver writer's responsibility to make sure it being
called only once, making napi_disable more robust does not hurt, not
to say it can prevent a buggy driver from crashing a system.
So, we check the napi state bit to make sure that if napi is already
disabled, we exit the call early enough to avoid spinning infinitely.

Fixes: bea3348eef27 ("[NET]: Make NAPI polling independent of struct net_device objects.")
