We should not hold a spinlock while pushing the skb into the networking stack, so move the call to netif_rx_ni out of the critical region to where we have dropped the spinlock. Signed-off-by: Stefan Sørensen <redacted>Looks good, applied, thanks.
And thanks, Stefan, for following up on this. For the record, we
discussed this fix back in April.
