The brcmsmac internal tx buffering is problematic. The amount of buffering is excessive (228 packets in addition to the 256 slots in each DMA ring), and frames may be dropped due to a lack of flow control. This patch reworks the transmit code path to remove the internal buffering. Frames are immediately handed off to the DMA support rather than passing through an intermediate queue. Non-aggregate frames are queued immediately into the tx rings, and aggregate frames are queued temporarily in an AMPDU session until ready for transmit. Transmit flow control is also added to avoid dropping packets when the tx rings are full. Conceptually this is a separate change, but it's included in this commit because removing the tx queue without adding flow control could cause significant problems.
