brcmsmac: fix tx status processing
This issue was reported on the wireless list (see [1]) in which brcmsmac ran into a fatal error: [ 588.284074] brcmsmac bcma0:0: frameid != txh->TxFrameID [ 588.284098] brcmsmac bcma0:0: MI_TFS: fatal [ 588.284103] brcmsmac bcma0:0: wl0: fatal error, reinitializing [ 588.286208] ieee80211 phy0: Hardware restart was requested The tx status feedback is processed in a loop limiting the number of frames processed in one run. The code terminate processing when the limit is reached regardless the txstatus value read from the device register. When that status is is flagged as being valid it must be processed as the hardware will clear it after is has been read. Bisecting was done by Seth Forshee and showed following commit as the culprit: commit 57fe5048 Author: Piotr Haber <phaber@broadcom.com> Date: Wed Nov 28 21:44:07 2012 +0100 brcmsmac: fix bounds checking in tx/rx [1] http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-wireless/msg101293.htmlReported-by: NLinus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org> Tested-by: NSeth Forshee <seth.forshee@canonical.com> Reviewed-by: NHante Meuleman <meuleman@broadcom.com> Reviewed-by: NPieter-Paul Giesberts <pieterpg@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NArend van Spriel <arend@broadcom.com> Signed-off-by: NJohn W.
