[BNX2]: Fix tx race condition.

Fix a subtle race condition between bnx2_start_xmit() and bnx2_tx_int()
similar to the one in tg3 discovered by Herbert Xu:

CPU0					CPU1
bnx2_start_xmit()
	if (tx_ring_full) {
		tx_lock
					bnx2_tx()
						if (!netif_queue_stopped)
		netif_stop_queue()
		if (!tx_ring_full)
						update_tx_ring
			netif_wake_queue()
		tx_unlock
	}

Even though tx_ring is updated before the if statement in bnx2_tx_int() in
program order, it can be re-ordered by the CPU as shown above.  This
scenario can cause the tx queue to be stopped forever if bnx2_tx_int() has
just freed up the entire tx_ring.  The possibility of this happening
should be very rare though.

The following changes are made, very much identical to the tg3 fix:

1. Add memory barrier to fix the above race condition.

2. Eliminate the private tx_lock altogether and rely solely on
netif_tx_lock.  This eliminates one spinlock in bnx2_start_xmit()
when the ring is full.

3. Because of 2, use netif_tx_lock in bnx2_tx_int() before calling
netif_wake_queue().

4. Add memory barrier to bnx2_tx_avail().

5. Add bp->tx_wake_thresh which is set to half the tx ring size.

6. Check for the full wake queue condition before getting
netif_tx_lock in tg3_tx().  This reduces the number of unnecessary
spinlocks when the tx ring is full in a steady-state condition.
