+Subject: rt2x00: Serialize TX operations on a queue.
+
+From: Gertjan van Wingerde <gwingerde@gmail.com>
+
+commit 77a861c405da75d81e9e6e32c50eb7f9777777e8 upstream.
+
+The rt2x00 driver gets frequent occurrences of the following error message
+when operating under load:
+phy0 -> rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame: Error - Arrived at non-free entry in the
+non-full queue 2.
+
+This is caused by simultaneous attempts from mac80211 to send a frame via
+rt2x00, which are not properly serialized inside rt2x00queue_write_tx_frame,
+causing the second frame to fail sending with the above mentioned error
+message.
+
+Fix this by introducing a per-queue spinlock to serialize the TX operations
+on that queue.
