Subject: [PATCH] net: dev: Remove preempt_disable() and get_cpu() in
 netif_rx_internal().

References: SLE Realtime Extension
Patch-mainline: v5.18-rc1
Git-commit: f234ae2947612825686b25cae3e9579188a6ba95

The preempt_disable() () section was introduced in commit
    cece1945bffcf ("net: disable preemption before call smp_processor_id()")

and adds it in case this function is invoked from preemtible context and
because get_cpu() later on as been added.

The get_cpu() usage was added in commit
    b0e28f1effd1d ("net: netif_rx() must disable preemption")

because ip_dev_loopback_xmit() invoked netif_rx() with enabled preemption
causing a warning in smp_processor_id(). The function netif_rx() should
only be invoked from an interrupt context which implies disabled
preemption. The commit
   e30b38c298b55 ("ip: Fix ip_dev_loopback_xmit()")

was addressing this and replaced netif_rx() with in netif_rx_ni() in
ip_dev_loopback_xmit().

Based on the discussion on the list, the former patch (b0e28f1effd1d)
should not have been applied only the latter (e30b38c298b55).

Remove get_cpu() and preempt_disable() since the function is supposed to
be invoked from context with stable per-CPU pointers. Bottom halves have
to be disabled at this point because the function may raise softirqs
which need to be processed.
