Wen Gong dddaa64d0a ath11k: add wait operation for tx management packets for flush from mac80211
In ath11k, tx of management packet is doing in a work queue. Sometimes
the workqueue does not finish tx immediately, then it lead after the next
step of vdev delete finished, it start to send the management packet to
firmware and lead firmware crash.

ieee80211_set_disassoc() have logic of ieee80211_flush_queues() after
it send_deauth_disassoc() to ath11k, its purpose is make sure the
deauth was actually sent, so it need to change ath11k to match the
purpose of mac80211.

To address these issue wait for tx mgmt as well as tx data packets.

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.
