Subject: [PATCH net-next] net: Revert the softirq will run annotation in
 ____napi_schedule().

The lockdep annotation lockdep_assert_softirq_will_run() expects that
either hard or soft interrupts are disabled because both guaranty that
the "raised" soft-interrupts will be processed once the context is left.

This triggers in flush_smp_call_function_from_idle() but it this case it
explicitly calls do_softirq() in case of pending softirqs.

Revert the "softirq will run" annotation in ____napi_schedule() and move
the check back to __netif_rx() as it was. Keep the IRQ-off assert in
____napi_schedule() because this is always required.

Fixes: fbd9a2ceba5c7 ("net: Add lockdep asserts to ____napi_schedule().")
