Remi Pommarel 786e264b37 wifi: ath9k: Fix possible stall on ath9k_txq_list_has_key()
[ Upstream commit 75086cc6dee046e3fbb3dba148b376d8802f83bc ]

On EDMA capable hardware, ath9k_txq_list_has_key() can enter infinite
loop if it is called while all txq_fifos have packets that use different
key that the one we are looking for. Fix it by exiting the loop if all
txq_fifos have been checked already.

Because this loop is called under spin_lock_bh() (see ath_txq_lock) it
causes the following rcu stall:

This rcu stall is hard to reproduce as is, but changing ATH_TXFIFO_DEPTH
from 8 to 2 makes it reasonably easy to reproduce.

README

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.
