page_pool: allow caching from safely localized NAPI
I went back to the explicit "are we in NAPI method", mostly
because I don't like having both around :( (even tho I maintain
that in_softirq() && !in_hardirq() is as safe, as softirqs do
not nest).
Still returning the skbs to a CPU, tho, not to the NAPI instance.
I reckon we could create a small refcounted struct per NAPI instance
which would allow sockets and other users so hold a persisent
and safe reference. But that's a bigger change, and I get 90+%
recycling thru the cache with just these patches (for RR and
streaming tests with 100% CPU use it's almost 100%).
Some numbers for streaming test with 100% CPU use (from previous version,
but really they perform the same):
