When num_pending_tx reaches max_num_pending_tx, we will stop the queues by calling ieee80211_stop_queues(). As frames that have previously been sent for transmission (num_pending_tx) are completed, we will decrease num_pending_tx and wake the queues by calling ieee80211_wake_queue(). ieee80211_wake_queue() does not call wake_tx_queue, so we might still have frames in the queue at this point. While the queues were stopped, the socket buffer might have filled up, and in order for user space to write more, we need to free the frames in the queue, since they are accounted to the socket. In order to free them, we first need to transmit them. This problem cannot be reproduced on low-latency devices, e.g. pci, since they call ath10k_mac_tx_push_pending() from ath10k_htt_txrx_compl_task(). ath10k_htt_txrx_compl_task() is not called on high-latency devices. Fix the problem by calling ath10k_mac_tx_push_pending(), after processing rx packets, just like for low-latency devices, also in the SDIO case. Since we are calling ath10k_mac_tx_push_pending() directly, we also need to export it.
