rpmsg: smd: Don't hold the tx lock during wait 

Holding the tx lock while waiting for tx-drain events from the remote
side blocks try_send requests from failing quickly, so temporarily drop
the tx lock while waiting.

While this allows try_send to fail quickly it also could allow a
subsequent send to succeed putting a smaller packet in the FIFO while
we're waiting for room for our large packet. But as this lock is per
channel we expect that clients with ordering concerns implements their
own ordering mechanism.
