Baochen Qiang 273703ebdb ath11k: Fix crash caused by uninitialized TX ring
Commit 31582373a4 ("ath11k: Change number of TCL rings to one for
QCA6390") avoids initializing the other entries of dp->tx_ring cause
the corresponding TX rings on QCA6390/WCN6855 are not used, but leaves
those ring masks in ath11k_hw_ring_mask_qca6390.tx unchanged. Normally
this is OK because we will only get interrupts from the first TX ring
on these chips and thus only the first entry of dp->tx_ring is involved.

In case of one MSI vector, all DP rings share the same IRQ. For each
interrupt, all rings have to be checked, which means the other entries
of dp->tx_ring are involved. However since they are not initialized,
system crashes.

Fix this issue by simply removing those ring masks.

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.
