Running a RX refill outside of NAPI context is inherently racy, even
though the worker is only started for an entirely idle RX ring.
>From the moment that the worker has replenished parts of the RX ring,
the HW can use those RX buffers, raise an IRQ and cause our NAPI code to
run concurrently to the RX refill worker.
Instead let the worker schedule our NAPI instance, and refill the RX
ring from there. Keeping accurate count of how many buffers still need
to be refilled also removes some quirky arithmetic from the low-level
code.

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.
