BUG/MINOR: quic: fix race condition on datagram purging

Each datagram is received by a random thread and dispatch to its
destination thread linked to the connection. Then, the datagram is
handled by the connection thread. Once this is done, datagram buffer
pointer is atomically set to NULL to mark it as consumed.

Consumed datagrams are purged before recvfrom() invocation on random
receiver threads. The check for NULL buffer must thus be done
atomically. This was not the case before this patch, which may have
triggered race conditions.

This bug has been introduced by commit

  MINOR: quic: implement datagram cleanup for quic_receiver_buf

This should be backported up to 2.6 after previously mentionned commit.
