Add __netif_tx_lock() to ensure that only one packet is being
transmitted at a time to avoid race conditions in the netif_txq
struct and prevent packet data corruption. Failing to do so causes
kernel panic with the following error:
[ 2184.746764] ------------[ cut here ]------------
[ 2184.751412] kernel BUG at lib/dynamic_queue_limits.c:99!
[ 2184.756728] Internal error: Oops - BUG:
00000000f2000800 [#1] PREEMPT SMP
logs: https://gist.github.com/MeghanaMalladiTI/
9c7aa5fc3b7fb03f87c74aad487956e9
The lock is acquired before calling emac_xmit_xdp_frame() and released after the
call returns. This ensures that the TX queue is protected from concurrent access
during the transmission of XDP frames.
