[PATCH net] virtio-net: add cond_resched() to the command waiting loop

[Jason Wang]

Adding cond_resched() to the command waiting loop for a better
co-operation with the scheduler. This allows to give CPU a breath to
run other task(workqueue) instead of busy looping when preemption is
not allowed.

What's more important. This is a must for some vDPA parent to work
since control virtqueue is emulated via a workqueue for those parents.

Fixes: bda324fd037a ("vdpasim: control virtqueue support")
