Make napi_hash_lock IRQ safe. It is used during the control path, and is
taken and released in napi_hash_add and napi_hash_del, which will
typically be called by calls to napi_enable and napi_disable.

This change avoids a deadlock in pcnet32 (and other any other drivers
which follow the same pattern):

 CPU 0:
 pcnet32_open
    spin_lock_irqsave(&lp->lock, ...)
      napi_enable
        napi_hash_add <- before this executes, CPU 1 proceeds
          spin_lock(napi_hash_lock)
       [...]
    spin_unlock_irqrestore(&lp->lock, flags);

 CPU 1:
   pcnet32_close
     napi_disable
       napi_hash_del
         spin_lock(napi_hash_lock)
          < INTERRUPT >
            pcnet32_interrupt
              spin_lock(lp->lock) <- DEADLOCK

Changing the napi_hash_lock to be IRQ safe prevents the IRQ from firing
on CPU 1 until napi_hash_lock is released, preventing the deadlock.
