iwlwifi: mvm: properly flush the queues for buffering transport There are transport that must buffer frames in the driver. This means that we have frames that are not in the op_mode and not visible to the firwmare. This causes issues when we flush the queues: the op_mode flushes a queue, and the firmware flushes all the frames that are *currently* on the rings, but if the transport buffers frames, it can submit these while we are flushing. This leads to a situation where we still have frames on the queues after we flushed them. Preventing those buffered frame from getting into the firmware is possible, but then, we have to run the Tx response path on frames that didn't reach the firmware which is not desirable. The way I solve this here is to let these frames go to the firmware, but make sure the firmware will not transmit them (by setting the station as draining). The op_mode then needs to wait until the transport itself is empty to be sure that the queue is really empty. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
