From: Yuwei Zheng <zhengyuwei@xxxxxx>
In the environment with heavy wifi traffic, set the ar9271 into monitor mode, will
trigger a deadloop panic.
The ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb function excute on the interrupt context, and ath9k_rx_tasklet excute
on the soft irq context. In other words, the ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb have more chance to excute than
ath9k_rx_tasklet. So in the worst condition, the rx.rxbuf receive list is always full,
and the do {}while(true) loop will not be break. The kernel get a soft lockup panic.
