mac80211 stop queues for various other reasons than

I'll not be able to test this patch this week. Will have access to
the hardware next week.
I checeked before, if
'q->queued + (tx_info.nbuf + 1) / 2 >= q->ndesc - 1' is triggered
when MT7630E hangs and it is not. But maybe second part of the patch
will help.
