[PATCH net] hv_netvsc: Fix napi reschedule while receive completion is busy

From: Haiyang Zhang <haiyangz at microsoft.com>

If out ring is full temporarily and receive completion cannot go out,
we may still need to reschedule napi if other conditions are met.
Otherwise the napi poll might be stopped forever, and cause network
disconnect.
