netdev-dpdk: Remove the tx queue spinlock.

Browse Source 
The previous commit makes OVS create one tx queue for each
cpu core, each pmd thread will use a separate tx queue.
Also, tx of non-pmd threads on dpdk interface is all through
'NON_PMD_THREAD_TX_QUEUE', protected by the 'nonpmd_mempool_mutex'.
Therefore, the spinlock is no longer needed.  And this commit
removes it from 'struct dpdk_tx_queue'.
