ucc_geth: Fix empty TX queue processing

Following oops was seen with the ucc_geth driver:

 Unable to handle kernel paging request for data at address 0x00000058
 Faulting instruction address: 0xc024f2fc
 Oops: Kernel access of bad area, sig: 11 [#1]

 [...]

This is because ucc_geth_tx() tries to process an empty queue when
queues are logically stopped. Stopping the queues doesn't disable
polling, and since nowadays ucc_geth_tx() is actually called from
the polling routine, the oops above might pop up.

Fix this by removing 'netif_queue_stopped() == 0' check.
