This change addresses several issues in the current ixgbe implementation of
busy poll sockets.
First was the fact that it was possible for frames to be delivered out of
order if they were held in GRO. This is addressed by flushing the GRO buffers
before releasing the q_vector back to the idle state.
The other issue was the fact that we were having to take a spinlock on
changing the state to and from idle. To resolve this I have replaced the
state value with an atomic and use atomic_cmpxchg to change the value from
idle, and a simple atomic set to restore it back to idle after we have
acquired it. This allows us to only use a locked operation on acquiring the
vector without a need for a locked operation to release it.
