[PATCH 35/93] ath9k: add a better fix for the rx tasklet vs rx flush race
From: Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski
Date: Tue Feb 05 2013 - 17:09:59 EST
3.5.7.5 -stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Felix Fietkau <nbd@xxxxxxxxxxx>
commit 7fc00a3054b70b1794c2d64db703eb467ad0365c upstream.
Ensure that the rx tasklet is no longer running when entering the reset path.
Also remove the distinction between flush and no-flush frame processing.
If a frame has been received and ACKed by the hardware, the stack needs to see
it, so that the BA receive window does not go out of sync.

[ herton: SC_OP_RXFLUSH defined as a macro, and *_bit operations were not
being used yet ]
