ath9k: fix stopping tx dma on reset
In some situations, stopping Tx DMA frequently fails, leading to messages like this: ath: Failed to stop TX DMA in 100 msec after killing last frame ath: Failed to stop TX DMA! This patch uses a few MAC features to abort DMA globally instead of iterating over all hardware queues and attempting to stop them individually. Not only is that faster and works with a shorter timeout, it also makes the process much more reliable. With this change, I can no longer trigger these messages on AR9380, and on AR9280 they become much more rare. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W.
