The tx queue can become permanently stuck in a stopped state due to a
race condition between the URB submission path and its completion
callback.
The URB completion callback can run immediately after usb_submit_urb()
returns, before the submitting function calls netif_stop_queue(). If
this occurs, the queue state management becomes desynchronized, leading
to a stall where the queue is never woken.
Fix this by moving the netif_stop_queue() call to before submitting the
URB. This closes the race window by ensuring the network stack is aware
the queue is stopped before the URB completion can possibly run.
