iwlegacy: fix enqueue hcmd race conditions

We mark command as huge by using meta->flags from other (non huge) command,
but flags can be possibly overridden, when non huge command is enqueued,
what can lead to:

WARNING: at lib/dma-debug.c:696 dma_debug_device_change+0x1a3/0x1f0()
DMA-API: device driver has pending DMA allocations while released from device [count=1]

To fix introduce additional CMD_MAPPED to mark command as mapped and
serialize iwl_enqueue_hcmd() with iwl_tx_cmd_complete() using
hcmd_lock. Serialization will also fix possible race conditions,
because q->read_ptr, q->write_ptr are modified/used in parallel.

Do not change callback, I did (and fixed) that mistake in iwlagn.
