The netdevsim driver was experiencing NOHZ tick-stop errors during packet transmission due to pending softirq work when calling napi_schedule(). This issue was observed when running the netconsole selftest, which triggered the following error message: NOHZ tick-stop error: local softirq work is pending, handler #08!!! To fix this issue, introduce a timer that schedules napi_schedule() from a timer context instead of calling it directly from the TX path. Create an hrtimer for each queue and kick it from the TX path, which then schedules napi_schedule() from the timer context.
