iwlwifi: fix the Transmit Frame Descriptor rings

The logic that allows to have a short TFD queue was completely wrong.
We do maintain 256 Transmit Frame Descriptors, but they point to
recycled buffers. We used to attach and de-attach different TFDs for
the same buffer and it worked since they pointed to the same buffer.

Also zero the number of BDs after unmapping a TFD. This seems not
necessary since we don't reclaim the same TFD twice, but I like
housekeeping.

This patch solves this warning:
