So its possible that after cpu0 cleared SCHED, cpu1 could have set it
back and we are going to use cmpxchg() to detect and retry right? If 
so,
This is a state diagram before the change. There's no cmpxchg() here.

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.

Fixes: 2d8bff12699abc ("netpoll: Close race condition between poll_one_napi and napi_disable")

is this BUG_ON valid/needed? We could have lost the cmpxchg() and
the other thread could have set NAPI_STATE_SCHED?
The BUG_ON() is here to make sure that when napi_enable() is called the
napi instance was dormant, i.e. disabled. We have "STATE_SCHED" bit set
on disabled NAPIs because that bit means ownership. Whoever disabled
the NAPI owns it.

That BUG_ON() could have been taken outside of the loop, there's no
point re-checking on every try.

Are you seeing NAPI-related failures? We had at least 3 reports in the
last two weeks of strange failures which look like NAPI state getting
corrupted on net-next...
We hit two napi related crashes while attempting mtu size change.
