wl12xx: fix potential race condition with TX queue watermark
Check the conditions for the high/low TX queue watermarks when the
spin-lock is taken. This prevents race conditions as tx_queue_count and
the flag checked are only modified when the spin-lock is taken.
The following race was in mind:
- Queues are almost full and wl1271_op_tx() will stop the queues, but it
doesn't get the spin-lock yet.
- (on another CPU) tx_work_locked() dequeues 15 skbs from this queue and
tx_queue_count is updated to reflect this
- wl1271_op_tx() does not check tx_queue_count after taking the
spin-lock and incorrectly stops the queue.
