I never thought of it before.  I don't think the quota is an issue per
se, since the quota accounting is done elsewhere.  The main issue I
think would be that netif_receive_skb() expects to be called from a
certain context (a poll routine only), but looking at the code, that
doesn't appear to be the case.
