mt76: reduce locking in mt76_dma_tx_cleanup

Browse source

q->tail can be safely updated without locking, because there is no
concurrent access. If called from outside of the tasklet (for flushing),
the tasklet is always disabled.
q->queued can be safely read without locking, as long as the decrement
happens within the locked section.
This patch allows cleaning up tx packets outside of the section that holds
the queue lock for improved performance
