net: prevent deadlocks when enabling NAPIs with mixed kthread config

The following order of calls currently deadlocks if:
 - device has threaded=1; and
 - NAPI has persistent config with threaded=0.

  netif_napi_add_weight_config()
    dev->threaded == 1
      napi_kthread_create()

  napi_enable()
    napi_restore_config()
      napi_set_threaded(0)
        napi_stop_kthread()
	  while (NAPIF_STATE_SCHED)
	    msleep(20)

We deadlock because disabled NAPI has STATE_SCHED set.
Creating a thread in netif_napi_add() just to destroy it in
napi_disable() is fairly ugly in the first place. Let's read
both the device config and the NAPI config in netif_napi_add().
