[SCSI] fcoe: Cleanup locking on fcoe_percpu_receive_thread

Browse Source 
Noticed that we can shuffle the code around in fcoe_percpu_receive_thread a bit
and avoid taking the fcoe_rx_list lock twice per iteration.  This should improve
throughput somewhat.  With this change we take the lock, and check for new
frames in a single critical section.  Only if the list is empty do we drop the
lock and re-acquire it after being signaled to wake up.

Change Notes:
v2) did some further cleanup on the patch by replacing the 2nd call of
spin_lock/splice_init with a goto to the top of the outer loop.  This allows me
to change the inner while loop to an if conditional and remove the sencond check
of kthread_should_stop.  Based on suggestion from Vasu Dev.
