ip: Fix ip_dev_loopback_xmit()
Eric Paris got following trace with a linux-next kernel

While current linux-2.6 kernel doesnt emit this warning, bug is latent
and might cause unexpected failures.
ip_dev_loopback_xmit() runs in process context, preemption enabled, so
must call netif_rx_ni() instead of netif_rx(), to make sure that we
process pending software interrupt.
Same change for ip6_dev_loopback_xmit()
