[PATCH net] net: gro_cells: prevent enabling threaded NAPI on gro_cells

gro_cells allocates a per-CPU struct gro_cell with per-CPU queues
(cell->napi_skbs), per-CPU local_lock_t (cell->bh_lock), and per-CPU
napi_struct (cell->napi). On !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT, local_lock_t only
provides lockdep annotation (and is a complete no-op when
CONFIG_DEBUG_LOCK_ALLOC is disabled), relying on per-CPU locality and
disabled BH context for mutual exclusion; it does not provide cross-CPU
synchronization.

When threaded NAPI is enabled on a device backed by gro_cells (e.g.
gre0, vxlan, geneve) via sysfs or Netlink, unbound kernel threads are
created for each per-CPU NAPI. When gro_cells_receive() on CPU A
enqueues a packet to cell_A and calls napi_schedule(&cell_A->napi)
while holding cell_A->bh_lock, the woken kthread can run concurrently
on remote CPU B.

When CPU B runs gro_cell_poll(&cell_A->napi) and calls
__local_lock_nested_bh(&cell_A->bh_lock), lockdep detects that the lock
is already held by CPU A's task and triggers a warning:

  WARNING: CPU: 1 PID: 377 at net/core/gro_cells.c:66 gro_cell_poll
  DEBUG_LOCKS_WARN_ON(l->owner)
  CPU: 1 UID: 0 PID: 377 Comm: napi/gre0-0 Not tainted 7.3.0-rc2
  Call Trace:

   </TASK>

On !CONFIG_PREEMPT_RT kernels without lockdep, concurrent execution of
__skb_queue_tail() on CPU A and __skb_dequeue() on CPU B without
cross-CPU locks leads to silent queue corruption.

Virtual per-CPU NAPIs cannot support unbound threaded NAPI. Just as
gro_cells sets NAPI_STATE_NO_BUSY_POLL because virtual NAPIs cannot
support busy polling, introduce NAPI_STATE_NO_THREADED to indicate that
threaded mode is not supported.

Set NAPI_STATE_NO_THREADED in gro_cells_init(), and fail early with
-EOPNOTSUPP when trying to enable threaded napi on gro_cells netdevs.
