Merge branch 'netdev-RT'

Sebastian Andrzej Siewior says:

====================
net: dev: PREEMPT_RT fixups.

this series removes or replaces preempt_disable() and local_irq_save()
sections which are problematic on PREEMPT_RT.
Patch 2 makes netif_rx() work from any context after I found suggestions
for it in an old thread. Should that work, then the context-specific
variants could be removed.

v2…v3:
   - #2
     - Export __netif_rx() so it can be used by everyone.
     - Add a lockdep assert to check for interrupt context.
     - Update the kernel doc and mention that the skb is posted to
       backlog NAPI.
     - Use __netif_rx() also in drivers/net/*.c.
     - Added Toke''s review tag and kept Eric's desptite the changes
       made.

v1…v2:
  - #1 and #2
    - merge patch 1 und 2 from the series (as per Toke).
    - updated patch description and corrected the first commit number (as
      per Eric).
   - #2
     - Provide netif_rx() as in v1 and additionally __netif_rx() without
       local_bh disable()+enable() for the loopback driver. __netif_rx() is
       not exported (loopback is built-in only) so it won't be used
       drivers. If this doesn't work then we can still export/ define a
       wrapper as Eric suggested.
     - Added a comment that netif_rx() considered legacy.
   - #3
     - Moved ____napi_schedule() into rps_ipi_queued() and
       renamed it napi_schedule_rps().
