Using synchronize_rcu() is sufficient to wait until running NAPI quits.

See similar upstream fix with detailed explanation:
("net/mlx5e: Use synchronize_rcu to sync with NAPI")

This change also fixes a possible use-after-free as the NAPI
might be already released at this stage.

Fixes: 0419d8c9d8f8 ("net/mlx5e: kTLS, Add kTLS RX resync support")
