Through the netif_rx() routine ... "receive" processing,
as it's called consistently everywhere else I've looked.

It'd be clear if the doc said dev_alloc_skb() was for
passing data up the network stack, but "send" usually
means the opposite of "receive", while in this case
they're being used as synonymous.

... though that's not the real voodoo I was referring to,
that's just a (longstanding?) documentation goof.
