Subject[PATCH 4.9 08/48] can: gs_usb: fix busy loop if no more TX context is available
Date
4.9-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Wolfgang Grandegger <wg@grandegger.com>

commit 97819f943063b622eca44d3644067c190dc75039 upstream.

If sending messages with no cable connected, it quickly happens that
there is no more TX context available. Then "gs_can_start_xmit()"
returns with "NETDEV_TX_BUSY" and the upper layer does retry
immediately keeping the CPU busy. To fix that issue, I moved
"atomic_dec(&dev->active_tx_urbs)" from "gs_usb_xmit_callback()" to
the TX done handling in "gs_usb_receive_bulk_callback()". Renaming
"active_tx_urbs" to "active_tx_contexts" and moving it into
"gs_[alloc|free]_tx_context()" would also make sense.
