gianfar: Carefully free skbs in functions called by netpoll.
netpoll can call functions in hard irq context that are ordinarily called in lesser contexts. For those functions use dev_kfree_skb_any and dev_consume_skb_any so skbs are freed safely from hard irq context. Signed-off-by: "Eric W. Biederman" <ebiederm@xmission.com> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
