mac80211: change TX aggregation locking

To prepare for allowing drivers to sleep in
ampdu_action, change the locking in the TX
aggregation code to use the mutex the RX part
already uses. The spinlock is still necessary
around some code to avoid races with TX, but
now we can also synchronize_net() to avoid
getting an inconsistent sequence number.
