[PATCH 4.4 275/312] bnxt_en: Remove locking around txr->dev_state

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman

From: Florian Fainelli <f.fainelli@xxxxxxxxx>

commit cbce91cad4ee39070bf3c7873767194e4be88e16 upstream.

txr->dev_state was not consistently manipulated with the acquisition of
the per-queue lock, after further inspection the lock does not seem
necessary, either the value is read as BNXT_DEV_STATE_CLOSING or 0.
