[PATCH v2] iwlwifi: don't call netif_napi_add() with rxq->lock held (was Re: Lockdep warning in iwl_pcie_rx_handle())

From: Jiri Kosina <jkosina@suse.cz>

We can't call netif_napi_add() with rxq-lock held, as there is a potential
for deadlock as spotted by lockdep (see below). rxq->lock is not
protecting anything over the netif_napi_add() codepath anyway, so let's
drop it just before calling into NAPI.

========================================================
WARNING: possible irq lock inversion dependency detected
5.12.0-rc1-00002-gbada49429032 #5 Not tainted
--------------------------------------------------------
irq/136-iwlwifi/565 just changed the state of lock:
ffff89f28433b0b0 (&rxq->lock){+.-.}-{2:2}, at: iwl_pcie_rx_handle+0x7f/0x960 [iwlwifi]
but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(napi_hash_lock){+.+.}-{2:2}

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:
