parentiwlwifi: mvm: improve MCS rate warning (diff)
iwlwifi: mvm: flush queues without mutex held
For WMM-AC we may have to be changing QoS parameters while the queues are being flushed. This is not relevant in the "drop" case, but matters when we wait for the device to finish the transmissions. To allow this, do the actual waiting without holding the mutex. Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com>
