Subject: [PATCH v2 20/65] staging: wfx: simplify wfx_flush()

From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@...abs.com>

Current code of wfx_flush() force to drop packets in some contexts.
However, there is no obvious reasons to do that. It looks like a
workaround for a bug with the old implementation of __wfx_flush().
