netif_rx() now disables bottom halves, which causes the USB gadget to be
unable to receive frames if the interface is not brought up quickly enough
after being created by the driver (a bug confirmed on AM3352 SoC).

Replacing netif_rx() with __netif_rx() restores the old behavior and fixes
the bug. This can be done since rx_callback() is called from the interrupt
context.

Doesn't match the "From:" line, so we can't take this :(

Sorry, my mistake. I will fix that.

This fixes baebdf48c360 ("net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in
any context."). I will add an appropriate Fixes tag in v2.

Thank you for your feedback.
