[PATCH] wifi: ath12k: fix potential wmi_mgmt_tx_queue race condition

[Ramya Gnanasekar]

From: Karthik M <quic_karm at quicinc.com>

During stress test with maximum VAPs and peer connected, below warning
is seen:

[ 1079.110967] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full
[ 1079.117708] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28
[ 1079.123191] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full
[ 1079.129960] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28
[ 1079.135641] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full

This is caused by potential race condition while accessing skb_queue_len().
When ath12k_mgmt_over_wmi_tx_work() and ath12k_mac_mgmt_tx() is called concurrently,
then skb_queue_len() might fetch list length which is modified by skb_queue_tail()
or skb_dequeue().

Replace skb_queue_len() with skb_queue_len_lockless() which will
prevent concurrent modified access using READ_ONCE(). And also use '>=',
in case we queue a few SKBs simultaneously.

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.0.1-00029-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
