The ionic_wait_on_bit_lock() was a open-coded mutex knock-off
used only for protecting the queue reset operations, and there
was no reason not to use the real thing. We can use the lock
more correctly and to better protect the queue stop and start
operations from cross threading. We can also remove a useless
and expensive bit operation from the Rx path.
This fixes a case found where the link_status_check from a link
flap could run into an MTU change and cause a crash.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
