API 'netif_rx_ni()' has been removed in kernel with commit:
baebdf48c3600 ("net: dev: Makes sure netif_rx() can be invoked in any context.")
The API netif_rx() can be used for any context to receive packets
from device drivers.
This patch replaces the API netif_rx_ni() with netif_rx() for
kernel version 5.18 and above.

Added a #if for kernel version 5.18 and above for API change.

Can you please put the version check to 'kernel/linux/kni/compat.h',
there are multiple samples there.
As you will see there, the version comparison is not straightforward
when distro kernels are involved, so it is good to move that clutter
away from the source code.
