wcn36xx: use READ_ONCE() to access desc->ctrl
When accessing shared memory to check for the stat of submitted descriptors, make sure to use READ_ONCE(). This will guarantee the compiler treats these memory locations as volatile and doesn't apply any caching. While this doesn't fix any particular problem I ran into, it's best practice to do it this way. Note that this patch also removes the superflous extra condition check in the do-while loop in reap_tx_dxes(), as the loop will break instantly anyway in that case.
