[v2] kni: fix build with Linux 5.18
Checks
Commit Message
Since commit 2655926aea9b (net: Remove netif_rx_any_context() and
netif_rx_ni().) in 5.18, netif_rx_ni() no longer exists as netif_rx()
can be called from any context. So define HAVE_NETIF_RX_NI for older
releases and call the appropriate function in kni_net.

I think there is another commit that makes 'netif_rx()' usable in place
of 'netif_rx_ni()', can you please document that commit too for reference.

Can you please switch sides in the comparison [1] to be compatible with
rest of the file and to prevent checkpatch warning [2]?
Rest looks good to me.
