Oops might happen because we perform parallel putting new entries in a
queue (rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame()) and removing entries after
finishing transmitting (rt2800usb_work_txdone()). There are cases when
_txdone may process an entry that was not fully send and nullify
entry->skb .
To fix check in _txdone if entry has flags that indicate pending
transmission and wait until flags get cleared.
