mainlining shenanigans
2ae48edcf7
When flushing TX queues no new TX should go into the system.
However, in the following scenario we get TX:
1. Queues are stopped and there are packets in overflow queue
2. Station is removed and flush begins
3. Flush empties space, and reclaim path TXes SKB from overflow
queue.
Note that the fact the queues are stopped during the process
doesn't matter - the packet will be TXed since the TX path
doesn't care if TX queues are stopped or not, just if there is
space in the queue, which there is, since we just freed a
packet.
A fix here is rather complicated, since the flow is very racy.
Change code not to warn if we are TXing from overflow TX.
In case there is TX from both overflow TX and TX path we will
miss a warning we optimally had, but we can live with that.
Make sure we don't return before overflow queue is empty, otherwise
we will think queues are empty, but they will be refilled, resulting
with assert.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
