Invoking the make_tx_response() / push_tx_responses() pair with no lock
held would be acceptable only if all such invocations happened from the
same context (NAPI instance or dealloc thread). Since this isn't the
case, and since the interface "spec" also doesn't demand that multicast
operations may only be performed with no in-flight transmits,
MCAST_{ADD,DEL} processing also needs to acquire the response lock
around the invocations.
