net: give napi_threaded_poll() some love
There is interest to revert commit 4cd13c21b2
("softirq: Let ksoftirqd do its job") and use instead the
napi_threaded_poll() mode.
https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/140f61e2e1fcb8cf53619709046e312e343b53ca.camel@redhat.com/T/#m8a8f5b09844adba157ad0d22fc1233d97013de50
Before doing so, make sure napi_threaded_poll() benefits
from recent core stack improvements, to further reduce
softirq triggers.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
