There is a non-optimal check if doorbel is needed present in the
mlx5_tx_handle_completion() function. Advancing a copy of the txq
consumer index and checking this copy with initial value causes
unnecessary memory loads and hurts the performance. It is better to
have a simple small boolean variable for this purpose. That allows
to eliminate all the excessive memory operations with the txq consumer
index and restore the performance of the tx completions.

Fixes: 1fd9af0 ("net/mlx5: update Tx error handling routine")
