ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq returns either a postive integer (length) on success or a negative error code on error. The "if (ret) break;" statement will thus always break out of the loop immediately after ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq has returned (making the loop pointless). A side effect of this fix is that we will iterate the queue until ath10k_mac_tx_push_txq returns -ENOENT. This will make sure the queue is not added back to ar->txqs when it is empty. This could potentially improve performance somewhat (I have seen a small improvement with SDIO devices).
