netpoll: more efficient locking
Callers of netpoll_poll_lock() own NAPI_STATE_SCHED
Callers of netpoll_poll_unlock() have BH blocked between
the NAPI_STATE_SCHED being cleared and poll_lock is released.
We can avoid the spinlock which has no contention, and use cmpxchg()
on poll_owner which we need to set anyway.
This removes a possible lockdep violation after the cited commit,
since sk_busy_loop() re-enables BH before calling busy_poll_stop()
Fixes: 217f69743681 ("net: busy-poll: allow preemption in sk_busy_loop()")
