net/core: use local_bh_disable() in netif_rx_ni()
In 2004 netif_rx_ni() gained a preempt_disable() section around netif_rx() and its do_softirq() + testing for it. The do_softirq() part is required because netif_rx() raises the softirq but does not invoke it. The preempt_disable() is required to remain on the same CPU which added the skb to the per-CPU list. All this can be avoided be putting this into a local_bh_disable()ed section. The local_bh_enable() part will invoke do_softirq() if required.
