dev: Use nested-BH locking for softnet_data.process_queue.
softnet_data::process_queue is a per-CPU variable and relies on disabled
BH for its locking. Without per-CPU locking in local_bh_disable() on
PREEMPT_RT this data structure requires explicit locking.
softnet_data::input_queue_head can be updated lockless. This is fine
because this value is only update CPU local by the local backlog_napi
thread.
Add a local_lock_t to softnet_data and use local_lock_nested_bh() for locking
of process_queue. This change adds only lockdep coverage and does not
alter the functional behaviour for !PREEMPT_RT.
