net: don't let netpoll invoke NAPI if in xmit context

[ Upstream commit 275b471e3d2daf1472ae8fa70dc1b50c9e0b9e75 ]

Commit 0db3dc73f7a3 ("[NETPOLL]: tx lock deadlock fix") narrowed
down the region under netif_tx_trylock() inside netpoll_send_skb().
(At that point in time netif_tx_trylock() would lock all queues of
the device.) Taking the tx lock was problematic because driver's
cleanup method may take the same lock. So the change made us hold
the xmit lock only around xmit, and expected the driver to take
care of locking within ->ndo_poll_controller().

Unfortunately this only works if netpoll isn't itself called with
the xmit lock already held. Netpoll code is careful and uses
trylock(). The drivers, however, may be using plain lock().
Printing while holding the xmit lock is going to result in rare
deadlocks.

Luckily we record the xmit lock owners, so we can scan all the queues,
the same way we scan NAPI owners. If any of the xmit locks is held
by the local CPU we better not attempt any polling.

It would be nice if we could narrow down the check to only the NAPIs
and the queue we're trying to use. I don't see a way to do that now.
