xen-netback: fix race between napi_complete() and interrupt handler
When the NAPI budget was not all used, xenvif_poll() would call napi_complete() /after/ enabling the interrupt. This resulted in a race between the napi_complete() and the napi_schedule() in the interrupt handler. The use of local_irq_save/restore() avoided by race iff the handler is running on the same CPU but not if it was running on a different CPU. Fix this properly by calling napi_complete() before reenabling interrupts (in the xenvif_napi_schedule_or_enable_irq() call).
