Julian Wiedmann 7ed10e16e5 s390/qeth: fix tear down of async TX buffers
When qeth_iqd_tx_complete() detects that a TX buffer requires additional
async completion via QAOB, it might fail to replace the queue entry's
metadata (and ends up triggering recovery).

Assume now that the device gets torn down, overruling the recovery.
If the QAOB notification then arrives before the tear down has
sufficiently progressed, the buffer state is changed to
QETH_QDIO_BUF_HANDLED_DELAYED by qeth_qdio_handle_aob().

The tear down code calls qeth_drain_output_queue(), where
qeth_cleanup_handled_pending() will then attempt to replace such a
buffer _again_. If it succeeds this time, the buffer ends up dangling in
its replacement's ->next_pending list ... where it will never be freed,
since there's no further call to qeth_cleanup_handled_pending().

But the second attempt isn't actually needed, we can simply leave the
buffer on the queue and re-use it after a potential recovery has
completed. The qeth_clear_output_buffer() in qeth_drain_output_queue()
will ensure that it's in a clean state again.

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.
