[PATCH] ath11k: Avoid mgmt tx count underflow

[Sriram R]

The mgmt tx count reference is incremented/decremented on every mgmt tx and on
tx completion event from firmware.
In case of an unexpected mgmt tx completion event from firmware,
the counter would underflow. Avoid this by decrementing
only when the tx count is greater than 0.
