Enable threaded NAPI on WCN6750; Unlike traditional NAPI
poll which runs in softirq context and on the core which
scheduled the NAPI, threaded NAPI makes use of kernel threads
which are under direct control of the scheduler and helps
in balancing the NAPI processing load across multiple CPUs,
this helps in improving throughput.

In the case of WCN6750, enabling threaded NAPI has improved
160Mhz RX throughput by nearly 400Mbps.

Tested-on: WCN6750 hw1.0 AHB WLAN.MSL.1.0.1-00573-QCAMSLSWPLZ-1
