wifi: iwlegacy: common: don't call dev_kfree_skb() under spin_lock_irqsave()
[ Upstream commit 0c1528675d7a9787cb516b64d8f6c0f6f8efcb48 ]
It is not allowed to call consume_skb() from hardware interrupt context
or with interrupts being disabled. So replace dev_kfree_skb() with
dev_consume_skb_irq() under spin_lock_irqsave(). Compile tested only.
