Subject: [patch 2.6.35 01/25] wimax/i2400m: fix incorrect return -ESHUTDOWN when there is no Tx buffer available

From: Prasanna S.Panchamukhi <prasannax.s.panchamukhi@...el.com>

i2400m_tx() routine was returning -ESHUTDOWN even when there was no Tx buffer
available. This patch fixes the i2400m_tx() to return -ESHUTDOWN only when
the device is down(i2400m->tx_buf is NULL) and also to return -ENOSPC
when there is no Tx buffer. Error seen in the kernel log.
kernel: i2400m_sdio mmc0:0001:1: can't send message 0x5606: -108
kernel: i2400m_sdio mmc0:0001:1: Failed to issue 'Enter power save'command: -108
