net/mlx5e: Do not produce metadata freelist entries in Tx port ts WQE xmit
[ Upstream commit 86b0ca5b118d3a0bae5e5645a13e66f8a4f6c525 ]
Free Tx port timestamping metadata entries in the NAPI poll context and
consume metadata enties in the WQE xmit path. Do not free a Tx port
timestamping metadata entry in the WQE xmit path even in the error path to
avoid a race between two metadata entry producers.
