Subject: [RFC PATCH 2/2] net: mac808211: mac802154: use lockdep_assert_in_softirq() instead own warning

From: Anna-Maria Gleixner <anna-maria@...utronix.de>

The warning in ieee802154_rx() and ieee80211_rx_napi() is there to ensure
the softirq context for the subsequent netif_receive_skb() call. The check
could be moved into the netif_receive_skb() function to prevent all calling
functions implement the checks on their own. Use the lockdep variant for
softirq context check. While at it, add a lockdep based check for irq
enabled as mentioned in the comment above netif_receive_skb().
