[dpdk-dev,2/2] cxgbe: fix unnecessary spinning for a lock with trylock instead
Commit Message
CXGBE PMD depends on an alarm to periodically transmit any pending
coalesced packets and hence spins for a lock for each tx queue in the
alarm callback.
A better solution is to try to get a lock whenever possible, instead
of spinning for it.
