Emmanuel Grumbach ecd09ddc1d iwlwifi: mvm: fix frame drop from the reordering buffer
An earlier patch made sure that the queues are not lagging
too far behind. This means that iwl_mvm_release_frames
should not be called with a head_sn too far behind NSSN.

Don't take the risk to change completely the entry
condition to iwl_mvm_release_frames, but don't update
the head_sn is the NSSN is more than 2048 packets ahead
of us. Since this just cannot be right. This means that
the scenario described here happened. We are queue 0.

	Q:0				Q:1
	head_sn: 0    -> 2047
					head_sn: 2048

	Lots of packets arrive:
	head_sn: 2047 -> 2150

					send NSSN_SYNC notification

	Handle notification
	from the firmware and
	do NOT move the head_sn
	back to 2048

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
