wifi: ath12k: fix potential wmi_mgmt_tx_queue race condition
During stress test with maximum VAPs and peer connected, below warning is seen: [ 1079.110967] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full [ 1079.117708] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28 [ 1079.123191] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full [ 1079.129960] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28 [ 1079.135641] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full This is caused by potential race condition while accessing skb_queue_len(). When ath12k_mgmt_over_wmi_tx_work() and ath12k_mac_mgmt_tx() is called concurrently, then skb_queue_len() might fetch list length which is modified by skb_queue_tail() or skb_dequeue(). Replace skb_queue_len() with skb_queue_len_lockless() which will prevent concurrent modified access using READ_ONCE(). And also use '>=', in case we queue a few SKBs simultaneously.
