wimax/i2400m: fix oops caused by race condition when exiting USB kthreads



Current i2400m USB code had to threads (one for processing RX, one for
TX). When calling i2400m_{tx,rx}_release(), it would crash if the
thread had exited already due to an error.

So changed the code to have the thread fill in/out
i2400mu->{tx,rx}_kthread under a spinlock; then the _release()
function will call kthread_stop() only if {rx,tx}_kthread is still
set.
