ath9k: Use lockless variants for the RX fifo queue
The RX fifo can be accessed from the common tasklet or it can be reaped/cleaned when RX is stopped, which is done when doing a reset or channel change - this happens in process context. Since it is ensured that there are no pending tasklets when stopping RX and cleaning the FIFO, there is no need to use SKB queue functions which take internal locks.
