To ensure that the allocated TID is indeed unused, this patch introduces an API for blocking the driver from TXing on that TID.

mac80211: fix offloaded BA session traffic after hw restart 2014-09-03T11:40:38+00:00 Michal Kazior michal.kazior@tieto.com 2014-09-02T12:05:10+00:00 4549cf2b1803d29cfd019f7bfeaa784f8f9c558f When starting an offloaded BA session it is unknown what starting sequence number should be used. Using last_seq worked in most cases except after hw restart. When hw restart is requested last_seq is (rightfully so) kept unmodified. This ended up with BA sessions being restarted with an aribtrary BA window values resulting in dropped frames until sequence numbers caught up. Instead of last_seq pick seqno of a first Rxed frame of a given BA session. This fixes stalled traffic after hw restart with offloaded BA sessions (currently only ath10k).
