mac80211: fix txq queue related crashes

Browse Source 
commit 2a58d42c1e upstream.

The driver can access the queue simultanously
while mac80211 tears down the interface. Without
spinlock protection this could lead to corrupting
sk_buff_head and subsequently to an invalid
pointer dereference.

Fixes: ba8c3d6f16 ("mac80211: add an intermediate software queue implementation")
