[dpdk-dev] Potential deadlock in KNI RX path

Over a year ago, Neil pointed out that calling netif_rx() from kni_net_rx_normal() was a bug and could cause lockups. Here's the comment: http://dpdk.org/ml/archives/dev/2015-March/015783.html Looking at the current code base, it is still calling netif_rx() instead of netif_rx_ni() as suggested.
