aRFS rule movement requests from one Rx ring to other Rx ring arrive from the kernel to ensure that packets are steered to the right Rx ring. In the time interval until satisfying such a request, several more requests might follow, for the same flow. This patch detects and prevents repeated aRFS rules movement requests. In mlx5e_rx_flow_steer() ndo, after finding the aRFS rule that have been requested to move by the kernel, check if it's already requested to move by calling work_busy(&arfs_rule->arfs_work) handler. IOW, if this request is pending to be executed (in the work queue) or it's executing now but hasn't finished yet, return current filter ID and don't issue a new transition work.

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.
