net: Correct wrong BH disable in hard-interrupt.

I missed the obvious case where netif_ix() is invoked from hard-IRQ
context.

Disabling bottom halves is only needed in process context. This ensures
that the code remains on the current CPU and that the soft-interrupts
are processed at local_bh_enable() time.
In hard- and soft-interrupt context this is already the case and the
soft-interrupts will be processed once the context is left (at irq-exit
time).

Disable bottom halves if neither hard-interrupts nor soft-interrupts are
disabled. Update the kernel-doc, mention that interrupts must be enabled
if invoked from process context.

Fixes: baebdf48c3600 ("net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in any context.")
