[PATCH 20/23] wifi: mt76: mt7925: disable only the RX NAPI instances that exist

From: Jacobs Wu <jacobs.wu at mediatek.com>
mt7925e_mac_reset() picks the RX NAPI instances to disable from the
interrupt masks, but the instances themselves are created per allocated
RX queue by mt76_dma_init(). On mt7925 the two do not agree: the tx-done
ring is only described by the mt7928 DMA layout, so q_rx[MT_RXQ_MCU_WA]
is never allocated and never gets a NAPI, while mt7925_irq_map still
carries rx.wm2_complete_mask.
A MAC reset therefore calls napi_disable() on an instance whose
net_device pointer is NULL. The fault happens inside napi_disable()
while the reset work holds the RTNL, so networking goes down with it and
the machine is left answering ping with no usable userspace; only a
power cycle recovers it. Repeated NAN data path setup and teardown hits
this reliably on a busy channel, where MAC resets are frequent.
Iterate the RX queues instead, the same way the restore path further
down re-enables them, so only instances that were actually added are
touched.
