rt2x00: Sequence counter should be protected in irqsave

Browse Source 
The sequence counter can be accessed in IRQ context,
which means the lock protecting the counter should
be irqsave. To prevent making the entire intf->lock irqsave
without reason, create a new lock which only protects
the sequence counter.
