Currently, the driver knocks the ring doorbell before updating
the ring->last_to_use in tx flow. if the hardware transmiting
packet and napi poll scheduling are fast enough, it may get
the old ring->last_to_use in drivers' napi poll.
In this case, the driver will think the tx is not completed, and
return directly without clear the flag __QUEUE_STATE_STACK_XOFF,
which may cause tx timeout.

Fixes: 20d06ca2679c ("net: hns3: optimize the tx clean process")
