------------------ From: Stanislaw Gruszka <[email protected]> commit c2ca7d92ed4bbd779516beb6eb226e19f7f7ab0f upstream. This is iwlegacy version of: commit 342bbf3fee2fa9a18147e74b2e3c4229a4564912 Author: Johannes Berg <[email protected]> Date: Sun Mar 4 08:50:46 2012 -0800 iwlwifi: always monitor for stuck queues If we only monitor while associated, the following can happen: - we're associated, and the queue stuck check runs, setting the queue "touch" time to X - we disassociate, stopping the monitoring, which leaves the time set to X - almost 2s later, we associate, and enqueue a frame - before the frame is transmitted, we monitor for stuck queues, and find the time set to X, although it is now later than X + 2000ms, so we decide that the queue is stuck and erroneously restart the device Signed-off-by: Stanislaw Gruszka <[email protected]> Signed-off-by: John W.
