The title is a bit misleading as usually the commit log with the word
revert means that the commit is reverting another git commit. Maybe
something like this is better:

ath10k: drop incomplete scatter-gather pci tx transfers

WARN_ON() on data path is dangerous. WARN_ON_ONCE() or ath10k_warn() is
better.

Isn't this just a fancy way to say 'while (i-- > 0)'?
