Commit 9610bd988df9 ("ice: optimize XDP_TX workloads") introduced
@next_dd and @next_rs to ice_tx_ring struct. Currently, their state is
not restored in ice_clean_tx_ring(), which was not causing any troubles
as the XDP rings are gone after we're done with XDP prog on interface.

For upcoming usage of mentioned fields in AF_XDP, this might expose us
to a potential dead Tx side. Scenario would look like following (based
on xdpsock):

- two xdpsock instances are spawned in Tx mode
- one of them is killed
- XDP prog is kept on interface due to the other xdpsock still running
  * this means that XDP rings stayed in place
- xdpsock is launched again on same queue id that was terminated on
- @next_dd and @next_rs setting is bogus, therefore transmit side is
  broken

To protect us from the above, restore the default @next_rs and @next_dd
values when cleaning the Tx ring.
Thank you Maciej.
