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.

Looks good, applied, thanks.
And thanks, Stefan, for following up on this.  For the record, we
discussed this fix back in April.
