Felix Fietkau 41b98d773f wifi: mt76: fix stranded frames in mt76_txq_schedule_pending
A wcid is added to phy->tx_list whenever either tx_pending or
tx_offchannel becomes non-empty, but the requeue check after a partial
schedule required BOTH queues to be non-empty. When
mt76_txq_schedule_pending_wcid() returns -1 (queue stopped or
MT76_RESET) it leaves frames in tx_pending while tx_offchannel is empty,
so the wcid is dropped from every scheduling list and its frames stall
until the next mt76_tx() for that wcid or wcid cleanup. This strands
EAPOL/mgmt/nullfunc frames under momentary queue-full or across
scan/channel-switch, causing association and 4-way-handshake timeouts.

Requeue when either queue still holds frames, matching the enqueue
condition.
