ath9k: Improve flush() in mcc mode
The flush timeout in MCC mode is very small, since we are constrained by the time slice for each channel context, but since only the HW queues are flushed when switching contexts, it is acceptable. Since the SW queues are also emptied in the mac80211 flush() callback, a larger duration is needed. Add an override argument to __ath9k_flush() and set it when flush() is called in MCC mode. This allows the driver to drain both the SW and HW queues. Signed-off-by: Sujith Manoharan <c_manoha@qca.qualcomm.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
