On an imx6dl-pico-pi board with a QCA9377 SDIO chip, simply trying to
connect via ssh to another machine causes:
[ 55.824159] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -12
[ 55.832169] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to submit frame: -12
[ 55.838529] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to push frame: -12
[ 55.905863] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to transmit packet, dropping: -12
[ 55.913650] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to submit frame: -12
[ 55.919887] ath10k_sdio mmc1:0001:1: failed to push frame: -12
, leading to an ssh connection failure.
One user inspected the size of frames on Wireshark and reported
the followig:
"I was able to narrow the issue down to the mtu. If I set the mtu for
the wlan0 device to 1486 instead of 1500, the issue does not happen.
The size of frames that I see on Wireshark is exactly 1500 after
setting it to 1486."
Clearing the HI_ACS_FLAGS_ALT_DATA_CREDIT_SIZE avoids the problem and
the ssh command works successfully after that.
Introduce a 'credit_size_workaround' field to ath10k_hw_params for
the QCA9377 SDIO, so that the HI_ACS_FLAGS_ALT_DATA_CREDIT_SIZE
is not set in this case.
Tested with QCA9377 SDIO with firmware WLAN.TF.1.1.1-00061-QCATFSWPZ-1.
