Subject: [net-next PATCH 2/4] netdev: make napi_schedule return bool on NAPI successful schedule

From: Christian Marangi <[email-masked]>
Date: Mon, 2 Oct 2023 17:10:21 +0200

Change napi_schedule to return a bool on NAPI successful schedule. This
might be useful for some driver to do additional step after a NAPI ahs
been scheduled.
