    [XTENSA]: Fix use of skb after netif_rx
    
    Recently, Wang Chen submitted a patch
    (d30f53aeb31d453a5230f526bea592af07944564) to move a call to netif_rx(skb)
    after a subsequent reference to skb, because netif_rx may call kfree_skb on
    its argument.  The same problem occurs in some other drivers as well.
    
    This was found using the following semantic match.
    (http://www.emn.fr/x-info/coccinelle/)
    
    // <smpl>
    @@
    expression skb, e,e1;
    @@
    
    (
     netif_rx(skb);
    |
     netif_rx_ni(skb);
    )
      ... when != skb = e
    (
      skb = e1
    |
    * skb
    )
    // </smpl>
