I think there is one more problem here.  Now that it is possible to
get here, we can race with bnxt_tx_int() again here.  We can call
netif_tx_stop_queue() here after bnxt_tx_int() has already cleaned the
entire TX ring.  So I think we need to call bnxt_tx_wake_queue() here
again if descriptors have become available.
