mwifiex: fix command timeout problem seen in stress tests
It is observed that if single tid 6 packet comes among with massive tid 0 packets, tid 6 packet may stay in it's queue and will never be transmited. This is because wmm.highest_queued_prio will be set to 2 during transmission of tid 0 packets As a result, main work thread keeps on looping without serving that packet. In this case, if command has downloaded to firmware, driver doesn't process it's response causing command timeout. This patch will reset highest_queued_prio if packets exist in data queue, and try to find a ra_list for current private.
