Subject: cxgb3: Fix transmit queue stop mechanism
X-Git-Url: http://git.lede-project.org./?a=commitdiff_plain;h=cd7e903440bad2625afa4090f34bf497593656cd;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

cxgb3: Fix transmit queue stop mechanism

The last change in the Tx queue stop mechanism opens a window
where the Tx queue might be stopped after pending credits
returned.

Tx credits are returned via a control message generated by the HW.
It returns tx credits on demand, triggered by a completion bit
set in selective transmit packet headers.

The current code can lead to the Tx queue stopped
with all pending credits returned, and the current frame
not triggering a credit return. The Tx queue will then never be
awaken.

The driver could alternatively request a completion for packets
that stop the queue. It's however safer at this point to go back
to the pre-existing behaviour.
