Tx code doesn't clear the descriptors' status after cleaning.
So, if the budget is larger than number of used elems in a ring, some
descriptors will be accounted twice and xsk_umem_complete_tx will move
prod_tail far beyond the prod_head breaking the completion queue ring.

Fix that by limiting the number of descriptors to clean by the number
of used descriptors in the tx ring.

'ixgbe_clean_xdp_tx_irq()' function refactored to look more like
'ixgbe_xsk_clean_tx_ring()' since we're allowed to directly use
'next_to_clean' and 'next_to_use' indexes.

Version 3:
  * Reverted some refactoring made for v2.
  * Eliminated 'budget' for tx clean.
  * prefetch returned.

Version 2:
  * 'ixgbe_clean_xdp_tx_irq()' refactored to look more like
    'ixgbe_xsk_clean_tx_ring()'.

Did some test with and without the fix applied. For PVP the results are a little different depending on the packet size (note this is a single run, no deviation). For the same physical port in and out it’s faster! Note this was OVS AF_XDP using a XENA tester at 10G wire speed.
