free the skb's when the Tx of PAPRD frames fails and also add a debug
message indicating that.

Is this a stable fix?
No Luis, this problem came from some recent changes in PAPRD before
that it was Ok.
The patch applied to wireless-2.6 without changes, and the error
handling for ath_tx_start matched existing usage. So, I have it
queued now in wireless-2.6 with an added "Cc: stable@xxxxxxxxxx".
Should I not?
John this will be applicable for only 2.6.38 stable kernel.
The issue fixes for 2.6.37-rc5+ and this problem is not handled in the
following commit id:
commit 7607cbe2ad6931400c5d15ced342ab329ab8f92c
Date: Mon Dec 13 08:40:52 2010 +0100
This will not be even applicable for 2.6.37. It will introduce a
regression of double freeing skb's.
thanks,
shafi
John
