Extend the already existing support of threaded napi poll to do continuous busypolling. This is used for doing continuous polling of napi to fetch descriptors from backing RX/TX queues for low latency applications. Allow enabling of threaded busypoll using netlink so this can be enabled on a set of dedicated napis for low latency applications.
This is lacking clear justification and experimental results vs doing the same thing from user space. I'd also appreciate if Google could share the experience and results of using basic threaded NAPI _in production_. -- pw-bot: cr
