[PATCH net v6 3/3] net: sched: fix tx action reschedule issue with stopped queue

[Yunsheng Lin <linyunsheng@xxxxxxxxxx>]

The netdev qeueue might be stopped when byte queue limit has
reached or tx hw ring is full, net_tx_action() may still be
rescheduled endlessly if STATE_MISSED is set, which consumes
a lot of cpu without dequeuing and transmiting any skb because
the netdev queue is stopped, see qdisc_run_end().

This patch fixes it by checking the netdev queue state before
calling qdisc_run() and clearing STATE_MISSED if netdev queue is
stopped during qdisc_run(), the net_tx_action() is recheduled
again when netdev qeueue is restarted, see netif_tx_wake_queue().

Fixes: 6b3ba9146fe6 ("net: sched: allow qdiscs to handle locking")

V6: Drop NET_XMIT_DROP checking for it is not really relevant
    to this patch, and it may cause performance performance
    regression with multi pktgen threads on dummy netdev with
    pfifo_fast qdisc case.
