handling it.

e.g.

qmu done irq on cpu0 thread running on cpu1

qmu_done_tx()

handle gpd [0]

mtu3_requ_complete() mtu3_gadget_ep_disable()

unlock @mtu->lock

give back request lock @mtu->lock

mtu3_ep_disable()

mtu3_gpd_ring_free()

unlock @mtu->lock

lock @mtu->lock

get next gpd [1]

[1]: goto [0] to handle next gpd, and next gpd may be NULL.
