atm: remove an unnecessary loop 

Andrey reported this kernel warning:

WARNING: CPU: 0 PID: 4114 at kernel/sched/core.c:7737 __might_sleep+0x149/0x1a0
do not call blocking ops when !TASK_RUNNING; state=1 set at
[<ffffffff813fcb22>] prepare_to_wait+0x182/0x530

The deeply nested alloc_skb is a problem.

Diagnosis: nesting is wrong. It makes zero sense. Fix it and the
implicit task state change problem automagically goes away.

alloc_skb() does not need to be in the "while" loop.

alloc_skb() does not need to be in the {prepare_to_wait/add_wait_queue ...
finish_wait/remove_wait_queue} block.

I claim that:
- alloc_tx() should only perform the "wait_for_decent_tx_drain" part
- alloc_skb() ought to be done directly in vcc_sendmsg
- alloc_skb() failure can be handled gracefully in vcc_sendmsg
- alloc_skb() may use a (m->msg_flags & MSG_DONTWAIT) dependent
  GFP_{KERNEL / ATOMIC} flag
