rcu: increment quiescent state counter in ksoftirqd()
If a machine is flooded by network frames, a cpu can loop 100% of its time inside ksoftirqd() without calling schedule(). This can delay RCU grace period to insane values. Adding rcu_qsctr_inc() call in ksoftirqd() solves this problem. Paul: "This regression was a result of the recent change from "schedule()" to "cond_resched()", which got rid of that quiescent state in the common case where a reschedule is not needed".
