virtio_net: invoke softirqs after __napi_schedule
__napi_schedule might raise softirq but nothing causes do_softirq to trigger, so it does not in fact run. As a result, the error message "NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08" sometimes occurs during boot of a KVM guest when the network service is started and we are oom: ... Bringing up loopback interface: [ OK ] Bringing up interface eth0: Determining IP information for eth0...NOHZ: local_softirq_pending 08 done. [ OK ] ... Further, receive queue processing might get delayed indefinitely until some interrupt triggers: virtio_net expected napi to be run immediately. One way to cause do_softirq to be executed is by invoking local_bh_enable(). As __napi_schedule is normally called from bh or irq context, this seems to make sense: disable bh before __napi_schedule and enable afterwards. In fact it's a very complicated way of calling do_softirq(), and works since this function is only used when we are not in interrupt context. It's not hot at all, in any ideal scenario.
