Introduce ____napi_schedule() helper for callers in irq disabled
contexts. rps_trigger_softirq() becomes a leaf function.

Use container_of() in process_backlog() instead of accessing per_cpu
address.

Use a custom inlined version of __napi_complete() in process_backlog()
to avoid one locked instruction :

 only current cpu owns and manipulates this napi,
 and NAPI_STATE_SCHED is the only possible flag set on backlog.
 we can use a plain write instead of clear_bit(),
 and we dont need an smp_mb() memory barrier, since RPS is on,
 backlog is protected by a spinlock.
