bgmac_dma_tx_ring_free() frees the skbs of pending TX slots but leaves
slot->skb and slot->dma_addr set. The slots survive a down/up cycle,
and bgmac_dma_tx_add() only sets slot->skb on the last slot of a
packet. If a slot with a stale pointer is later used for the head or a
fragment of a scatter/gather packet, bgmac_dma_tx_free() frees the old
skb a second time when that slot completes.

The function also picks dma_unmap_single() or dma_unmap_page() by
looking at slot->skb, which is set on the last slot of a packet, while
the head was mapped with dma_map_single() and the fragments with
skb_frag_dma_map(). Use the SOF flag of the descriptor instead, like
bgmac_dma_tx_free() does.

Unmap before freeing, and clear both fields.
