Firmware can signal whether the host driver may sent packets for
a specific destination or interface. This can happen when a

Not locking ra_list when dequeuing packets creates race conditions.
When adding a packet 'tx_pkts_queued' is modified before setting
highest_priority_queue. If in-between the main loop starts, it will
see a packet queued (tx_pkts_queued > 0) but will not find it, since
max prio is not set yet. Depending on the scheduling, the thread
trying to add the packet could complete and restore the situation.
But this is not something to rely on.
Another race condition exists, if a new packet, exceeding current
max prio is added. If concurrently a packet is dequeued, the newly
set max prio will be overwritten with the value of the dequeued
packet. This can occur, because selecting a packet and modifying
the max prio is not atomic. The result in an infinite loop unless,
a new packet is added that has at least the priority of the hidden
packet.
Same applies to bss_prio_tbl. Forward iteration is no proper
lock-free technique and provides no protection from calls to
list_del. Although BSS are currently not added/removed dynamically,
this must not be the case in the future. Hence always hold proper
locks when accessing those lists.

Using NO_PKT_PRIO_TID and tx_pkts_queued to check for an empty
state, can lead to a contradictory state, resulting in an
infinite loop. Currently queueing and dequeuing of packets is
not synchronized, and can happen concurrently. While tx_pkts_queued
is incremented when adding a packet, max prio is set to NO_PKT when
the WMM list is empty. If a packet is added right after the check
for empty, but before setting max prio to NO_PKT, that packet is
trapped and creates an infinite loop.
Because of the new packet, tx_pkts_queued is at least 1, indicating
wmm lists are not empty. Opposing that max prio is NO_PKT, which
means "skip this wmm queue, it has no packets". The infinite loop
results, because the main loop checks the wmm lists for not empty
via tx_pkts_queued, but for dequeing it uses max_prio to see if it
can skip current list. This will never end, unless a new packet is
added which will restore max prio to the level of the trapped packet.
The solution here is to rely on tx_pkts_queued solely for checking
wmm queue to be empty, and drop the NO_PKT define. It does not
address the locking issue.

cmd_pending is increased in mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() and
decreased in mwifiex_complete_cmd() currently.
If there are two or more commands in the cmd_pending_q the main
worker thread will pick up next command from cmd_pending_q
automatically after finishing current command. As a result
mwifiex_wait_queue_complete() will not be called because
the command is alreay completed. This leads to a negative
number in cmd_pending count.
Fix it by increasing cmd_pending when a cmd is queued into
cmd_pending_q and decreasing when that cmd is recycled. For scan
commands we don't perform inc/dec operations until it's moved
from scan_pending_q to cmd_pending_q. This covers both
synchronous and asynchronous commands.
