I looked more into that and there are some issues with this approach.
tx_tasklet do mt76_txq_schedule() which can queue tx frames. Also we
do not free skb's that require status check and dev->usb.stat_work
is already (correctly) stopped on mac80211.stop.
I'll use wait_event(dev->tx_wait) on mac80211 stop to handle those
issues correctly.
