From: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> 3.12-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
=============== commit c01fac1c77a00227f706a1654317023e3f4ac7f0 upstream. If an aggregation session fails, frames still end up in the driver queue with IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU set. This causes tx for the affected station/tid to stall, since ath_tx_get_tid_subframe returning packets to send. Fix this by clearing IEEE80211_TX_CTL_AMPDU as long as no aggregation session is running.
