Always call ieee80211_wake_queue if the ring is not full after the txrun. The ieee80211_wake_queue is responsible for chacking if the queue was stopped or not. The current implementation of checking the ring_full before the txdone run was flawed and race conditions could occur that blocked all tx handling.
