Alexander Wetzel bc6f35967d wifi: mac80211: Do not schedule stopped TXQs
[ Upstream commit 11e3e22fa533f5d7cf04e32343b05a27eda3c7a5 ]

Ignore TXQs with the flag IEEE80211_TXQ_STOP when scheduling a queue.

The flag is only set after all fragments have been dequeued and won't
allow dequeueing other frames as long as the flag is set.

For drivers using ieee80211_txq_schedule_start() this prevents an
loop trying to push the queued frames while IEEE80211_TXQ_STOP is set:

After setting IEEE80211_TXQ_STOP the driver will call
ieee80211_return_txq(). Which calls __ieee80211_schedule_txq(), detects
that there sill are frames in the queue and immediately restarts the
stopped TXQ. Which can't dequeue any frame and thus starts over the loop.

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.
