gianfar: Revive SKB recycling
Before calling gfar_clean_tx_ring() the driver grabs an irqsave
spinlock, and then tries to recycle skbs. But since
skb_recycle_check() returns 0 with IRQs disabled, we'll never
recycle any skbs.
It appears that gfar_clean_tx_ring() and gfar_start_xmit() are
mostly idependent and can work in parallel, except when they
modify num_txbdfree.
So we can drop the lock from most sections and thus fix the skb
recycling.
