On the legacy netif_rx path, I incorrectly tried to optimise
the napi_complete call by using __napi_complete before we reenable
IRQs.  This simply doesn't work since we need to flush the held
GRO packets first.

This patch fixes it by doing the obvious thing of reenabling
IRQs first and then calling napi_complete.
