question about netif_rx

From: Julia Lawall

To my limited understanding, in a NAPI polling function, one should use
netif_receive_skb, rather than netif_rx. However, the via-velocity driver
defines the NAPI polling function velocity_poll, which is the only caller
of velocity_rx_srv, which is the only caller of velocity_receive_frame,
which calls netif_rx. The call to netif_rx seems to predate the
introduction of NAPI in this driver. Is this correct?

thanks,
julia
