bnx2x: Move statistics implementation into semaphores
Commit dff173de84958 ("bnx2x: Fix statistics locking scheme") changed the bnx2x locking around statistics state into using a mutex - but the lock is being accessed via a timer which is forbidden. [If compiled with CONFIG_DEBUG_MUTEXES, logs show a warning about accessing the mutex in interrupt context] This moves the implementation into using a semaphore [with size '1'] instead.
