[PATCH 7/7] wil6210: optimize wil_release_reorder_frames

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



In case of receiving frame with sequence number far greater than current,
wil_release_reorder_frames() will iterate many times over empty buffer.

Optimize this case by checking buffer emptiness and simply update
head_seq_num without iterating.
