The usage of in_interrupt() in non-core code is phased out. Ideally the
information of the calling context should be passed by the callers or the
functions be split as appropriate.

brcmfmac uses in_interupt() to select the netif_rx*() variant which matches
the calling context. The attempt to consolidate the code by passing an
arguemnt or by distangling it failed due lack of knowledge about this
driver and because the call chains are convoluted and hard to follow.

I think it is only for USB devices that the function can be called in
"interrupt" context. PCIe devices call it from thread context for sure.
The function brcmf_netif_rx() is (in)directly called by brcmf_rx_frame(), 
which is used by SDIO and USB. Anyway, it will be a bit more work, but 
doable. Let me see what I can come up with.
