The no_poll gate that pauses the Rx/Tx data path during reset and
link-down was a plain bool written on the control path and read on
the data-plane lcores without synchronization, allowing stale reads
that either keep dropping traffic or trigger spurious reset detection.
Made no_poll an RTE_ATOMIC(bool) and access it with release stores and
acquire loads so data-plane lcores reliably observe gate changes.
Fixes: 5b3124a0a6ef ("net/iavf: support no polling when link down")
