Linville" <linville@...driver.com> Subject: [ 38/53] brcm80211: smac: fix endless retry of A-MPDU transmissions 3.2.18-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Arend van Spriel <arend@...adcom.com> commit 5e379203c7788b7af01150bfadbc74d2797a2ef4 upstream. The A-MPDU code checked against a retry limit, but it was using the wrong variable to do so. This patch fixes this to assure proper retry mechanism. This problem had a side-effect causing the mac80211 flush callback to remain waiting forever as well. That side effect has been fixed by commit by Stanislaw Gruszka: commit f96b08a7e6f69c0f0a576554df3df5b1b519c479 Date: Tue Jan 17 12:38:50 2012 +0100 brcmsmac: fix tx queue flush infinite loop Reference: https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42576 Cc: Stanislaw Gruszka <sgruszka@...hat.com> Reviewed-by: Pieter-Paul Giesberts <pieterpg@...adcom.com> Reviewed-by: Alwin Beukers <alwin@...adcom.com> Signed-off-by: Arend van Spriel <arend@...adcom.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
