[ Upstream commit e35df62e04cc6fc4b9d90d054732f138349ff9b1 ]

When running this chip on arm imx6, we intermittently observe
the following kernel warning in the log, especially when the
system is under high load:

The driver is calling dev_kfree_skb() from code inside a spinlock,
where h/w interrupts are disabled. This is forbidden, as documented
in include/linux/netdevice.h. The correct function to use
dev_kfree_skb_irq(), or dev_kfree_skb_any().

Fix by using the correct dev_kfree_skb_xxx() functions:

in lan743x_tx_release_desc():
  called by lan743x_tx_release_completed_descriptors()
    called by in lan743x_tx_napi_poll()
    which holds a spinlock
  called by lan743x_tx_release_all_descriptors()
    called by lan743x_tx_close()
    which can-sleep
conclusion: use dev_kfree_skb_any()

in lan743x_tx_xmit_frame():
  which holds a spinlock
conclusion: use dev_kfree_skb_irq()

in lan743x_tx_close():
  which can-sleep
conclusion: use dev_kfree_skb()

in lan743x_rx_release_ring_element():
  called by lan743x_rx_close()
    which can-sleep
  called by lan743x_rx_open()
    which can-sleep
conclusion: use dev_kfree_skb()
