This busy here will be hit when you use last tx slot because
tx_inc_pending() is called before tx_mgmt_inc_pending().

Yeah.. now this condition is not needed as ath10k_htt_tx_mgmt_inc_pending
will be called only when tx_inc_pending succeeds. will remove this.

Oh wait.. I didn't pay attention before, but this looks rather ugly.
With this you will actually make the num_pending_mgmt_tx spin
endlessly upwards on firmware with HTT 3.0 (and uses TX_FRM for mgmt
tx and TX_COMPL_IND for completions), no?

Oops.. num_pending_mgmt_tx should be incremented only for MGMT_TX. Thats
why it is moved out of txrx_tx_unref.
