Lock is not needed for the readable idr operation, so avoid spin_lock_bh
for the idr_find() call. No need to disable the bottom half preempt if
it is already in bottom half context, so modify the spin_lock_bh to
spin_lock in the data tx completion handler.

Tested-on: IPQ8074 hw2.0 AHB WLAN.HK.2.4.0.1-01734-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1 v2

Why are you doing the lookups twice instead of just using the return
value of idr_remove?
