[PATCH net v5 2/2] mlx5: fix possible ptp queue fifo use-after-free

Fifo indexes are not checked during pop operations and it leads to
potential use-after-free when poping from empty queue. Such case was
possible during re-sync action. WARN_ON_ONCE covers future cases.

There were out-of-order cqe spotted which lead to drain of the queue and
use-after-free because of lack of fifo pointers check. Special check and
counter are added to avoid resync operation if SKB could not exist in the
fifo because of OOO cqe (skb_id must be between consumer and producer
index).

Fixes: 58a518948f60 ("net/mlx5e: Add resiliency for PTP TX port timestamp")
