    rx: Use _CLASS_RECV_CBUF in rxi_ReadPacket
    
    Currently, the userspace rxi_ReadPacket() allocates additional space
    for the incoming packet (if needed) with the RX_PACKET_CLASS_SEND_CBUF
    class. But we are allocating buffers for receiving packets, and so we
    should be using the RX_PACKET_CLASS_RECV_CBUF class.
    
    This is clearly a mistake from OpenAFS 1.0, since all other
    packet-receiving code uses RX_PACKET_CLASS_RECV_CBUF, and all other
    users of RX_PACKET_CLASS_SEND_CBUF are for sending packets.
    
    This mistake doesn't actually matter for most cases, since the packet
    class given to rxi_AllocDataBuf() is ignored for non-KERNEL, and this
    code is userspace only. The only time this is actually used is for
    UKERNEL. For UKERNEL, this mistake could possibly cause us to
    prematurely restrict how much space we allocate here (since the
    _SEND_CBUF packet quota is larger than the _RECV_CBUF quota), and
    trigger a sendCbufPktAllocFailures event.
    
    To fix this, use the proper RX_PACKET_CLASS_RECV_CBUF class instead,
    to match other packet-receiving code paths.
