[PATCH] wifi: ath12k: drop failed transmitted frames from metric calculation.

[PATCH] wifi: ath12k: drop failed transmitted frames from metric calculation.

[Karthikeyan Kathirvel]

In mesh node traffic, internal firmware-transmitted failures are
reported as transmitted failures in mesh metric calculation, leading
to the breakage of the mesh link.

Fix the issue by dropping the internal firmware-transmitted failures
before updating the TX completion status to mac80211, in order to
prevent false failure averaging in mesh metric calculation.

Tested-on: QCN9274 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.WBE.1.0.1-00029-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1

Fixes: d889913205cf ("wifi: ath12k: driver for Qualcomm Wi-Fi 7 devices")

there is a separator missing here, so should be something like:
...drop the frame and do not update...
...drop the frame -- do not update...
...drop the frame; do not update...
...drop the frame (do not update...)

Shouldn't this be ieee80211_free_txskb ? I'm not clear when to use which.

Yes, there is an internal patch is in pipeline, that will take care of 
addressing all dev_kfree_skb_any() to ieee80211_free_txskb() in 
ath12k_dp_tx_complete_msdu(), this patch doesn't take care of that.

Let's not add new bugs knowingly. Please fix this patch to use
ieee80211_free_txskb(), that is much more reliable than waiting for some
other patch.
