Subject: [PATCH 4.4 04/46] staging: rtl8192e: rtl92e_fill_tx_desc fix write to mapped out memory.

4.4-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Malcolm Priestley <tvboxspy@...il.com>

commit baabd567f87be05330faa5140f72a91960e7405a upstream.

The driver attempts to alter memory that is mapped to PCI device.

This is because tx_fwinfo_8190pci points to skb->data

Move the pci_map_single to when completed buffer is ready to be mapped with
psdec is empty to drop on mapping error.
