net: mvneta: do not schedule in mvneta_tx_timeout



commit 290213667ab53a95456397763205e4b1e30f46b5 upstream.

If a queue timeout is reported, we can oops because of some
schedules while the caller is atomic, as shown below :

Ben Hutchings attempted to propose a better fix consisting in using a
scheduled work for this, but while it fixed this panic, it caused other
random freezes and panics proving that the reset sequence in the driver
is unreliable and that additional fixes should be investigated.

When sending multiple streams over a link limited to 100 Mbps, Tx timeouts
happen from time to time, and the driver correctly recovers only when the
function is disabled.
