Make the delayed refill worker honor the "refill_enabled" flag by
checking it under refill_lock before requeueing itself. This
prevents a window where virtnet_rx_pause[_all]() disables NAPI and
synchronously waits for the current refill_work instance to finish only
for that instance to immediately arm another run, which then deadlocks
when it tries to double-disable NAPI.

Add and use a helper that encapsulates the locking and flag check so all
refill scheduling paths behave consistently and we no longer replicate
the spin_lock/unlock pattern.

This fixes the deadlock triggered by the XDP selftests when XDP is toggled
and RX is paused/resumed quickly.

Lightly tested.

Paolo is there a way to confirm this actually fixes the bug?
Could you help with that?
