[PATCH net-next] net: ethernet: mtk_wed: get rid of queue lock for rx queue

mtk_wed_wo_queue_rx_clean and mtk_wed_wo_queue_refill routines can't run
concurrently so get rid of spinlock for rx queues.

My understanding is that mtk_wed_wo_queue_refill will only be called
during init and by the tasklet. The mtk_wed_wo_queue_rx_clean function
is only called during deinit and only after the tasklet has been
disabled. That is the reason they cannot run at the same time correct?

It would be nice if you explained why they couldn't run concurrently
rather than just stating it is so in the patch description. It makes it
easier to verify assumptions that way. Otherwise the patch itself looks
good to me.

You say "for rx queues" but mtk_wed_wo_queue_refill() is also called
for tx queues.

ack, but for tx queues is run just during initialization.
