netpoll: hold rcu read lock in __netpoll_send_skb()

The function __netpoll_send_skb() is being invoked without holding the
RCU read lock. This oversight triggers a warning message when
CONFIG_PROVE_RCU_LIST is enabled:

	net/core/netpoll.c:330 suspicious rcu_dereference_check() usage!

	 netpoll_send_skb
	 netpoll_send_udp
	 write_ext_msg
	 console_flush_all
	 console_unlock
	 vprintk_emit

To prevent npinfo from disappearing unexpectedly, ensure that
__netpoll_send_skb() is protected with the RCU read lock.
