Subject: [PATCH 3/4] firewire: net: replace lists by counters
The current transmit code does not at all make use of
- fwnet_device.packet_list
and only very limited use of
- fwnet_device.broadcasted_list,
- fwnet_device.queued_packets.
Their current function is to track whether the TX soft-IRQ finished
dealing with an skb when the AT-req tasklet takes over, and to discard
pending tx datagrams (if there are any) when the local node is removed.
The latter does actually contain a race condition bug with TX soft-IRQ
and AT-req tasklet.
Instead of these lists and the corresponding link in fwnet_packet_task,
- a flag in fwnet_packet_task to track whether fwnet_tx is done,
- a counter of queued datagrams in fwnet_device
do the job as well.
The above mentioned theoretic race condition is resolved by letting
fwnet_remove sleep until all datagrams were flushed. It may sleep
almost arbitrarily long since fwnet_remove is executed in the context of
a multithreaded (concurrency managed) workqueue.
The type of max_payload is changed to u16 here to avoid waste in struct
fwnet_packet_task. This value cannot exceed 4096 per IEEE 1394:2008
table 16-18 (or 32678 per specification of packet headers, if there is
ever going to be something else than beta mode).
