reviewing the code I think:
- we should not run mt76u_tx_tasklet() from mt76_wake_tx_queue() since we do
not have tx_napi for usb and it will unnecessary go through tx queue checks.
We should probably do in mt76_wake_tx_queue() something like:
if (is_mmio())
tasklet_schedule(&dev->tx_tasklet);
else
mt76_txq_schedule(dev, txq->ac);
Another solution would be add a status_tasklet that just goes through the tx
queues receiving the usb tx completion and it schedules the tx_tasklet
What do you think?
- I guess it does not fix the 76x0e issue but we should just schedule tx queues in
mt76x02_tx_tasklet() (like it is done for mt7603 and mt7615) and move status
processing in mt76x02_poll_tx()
