Subject: wimax/i2400m: fix erroneous NETDEV_TX_BUSY use
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b8fbaef586176f6abe0eb7887ddae66e99898b79;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

wimax/i2400m: fix erroneous NETDEV_TX_BUSY use

A driver start_xmit() method cannot free skb and return NETDEV_TX_BUSY,
since caller is going to reuse freed skb.

In fact netif_tx_stop_queue() / netif_stop_queue() is needed before
returning NETDEV_TX_BUSY or you can trigger a ksoftirqd fatal loop.

In case of memory allocation error, only safe way is to drop the packet
and return NETDEV_TX_OK

Also increments tx_dropped counter
