[PATCH] b43: Fix possible a data race in b43_op_tx()

[Jia-Ju Bai]

The functions b43_op_tx() and b43_tx_work() may be concurrently executed.

In b43_tx_work(), the variable wl->tx_queue_stopped[queue_num] is
accessed with holding a mutex lock wl->mutex. But in b43_op_tx(), the
identical variable wl->tx_queue_stopped[skb->queue_mapping] is accessed
without holding this mutex lock. Thus, a possible data race may occur.

To fix this data race, in b43_op_tx(), the variable 
wl->tx_queue_stopped[skb->queue_mapping] is accessed with holding the 
mutex lock wl->mutex.

This data race is found by the runtime testing of our tool DILP-2.
