proc_bsr: fix race condition in BSR reporting

fix for #1934

This fixes a race condition between Stack thread and DL
PDU processing that lead to updates of the RLC buffer that
are undetected by the BSR routine.

What happens is that in a UL SCH PDU all outstanding data is transmitted
and and a LBSR with all zero buffers is sent.

14:39:47.327301 [MAC ] [D] [ 3793] BSR:   LCID=3 old_buffer=59
14:39:47.330600 [MAC ] [I] [ 3793] UL LCID=3 len=58 LBSR: b=0 0 0 0

Note that "old_buffer" isn't set to zero here.

At the same time (same TTI), the MAC PDU processing thread handles DL-SCH PDUs
that may generate new UL PDUs:

14:39:47.330749 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=1)
14:39:47.330762 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=2)
14:39:47.330775 [RLC ] [I] DRB1 Tx SDU (54 B, tx_sdu_queue_len=3)
..

Those PDUs are "new data" since the previous buffer state was zero.

Here is the race now between the threads, at the end of the bsr::step() function
old_buffer of each LCG is updated with the previous new_buffer, so
the buffer state of LCG=2 is now 59.

Now MAC starts the next TTI:

14:39:47.331910 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Running MAC tti=3794
14:39:47.331928 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=0, Bj=0
14:39:47.331934 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=1, Bj=0
14:39:47.331938 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=2, Bj=0
14:39:47.331941 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] Update Bj: lcid=3, Bj=-1752
14:39:47.331951 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=0 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331960 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=1 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331964 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=2 update new buffer=0
14:39:47.331971 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=3 update new buffer=335
14:39:47.331976 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:    check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(0)=0
14:39:47.331980 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:    check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(1)=0
14:39:47.331984 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:    check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(2)=59
14:39:47.331988 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:    check_new_data() -> get_buffer_state_lcg(3)=0
14:39:47.331993 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=0 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332000 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=1 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332003 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=2 old_buffer=0
14:39:47.332007 [MAC ] [D] [ 3794] BSR:   LCID=3 old_buffer=335

And since the buffer state of LCG=2 isn't zero, the new data for LCID=3 of that LCG is considered.
So effectivly, the BSR missed the "empty" buffer state for a fraction of time and doesn't
consider the outgoing data generated in the same TTI as new. It therefore
doesn't transmit a BSR.
