Xander Hover 15ac2b08a2 b44: Use dev_kfree_skb_irq() in b44_tx()
Reported issues when using dev_kfree_skb() on UP systems and
systems with low numbers of cores.  dev_kfree_skb_irq() will
properly save IRQ state before freeing the skb.

Tested on 3.1.1 and 3.2_rc2

Example of reproducible trace of kernel 3.1.1
