[PATCH] Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: fix TX queue off-by-one

[PATCH] Bluetooth: btintel_pcie: fix TX queue off-by-one

[Pengpeng Hou]

btintel_pcie_send_sync() reads the next transmit slot from
data->ia.tr_hia[] and uses it as an index into the fixed txq descriptor
arrays. The current guard only rejects values strictly greater than
txq->count, so an index equal to the queue depth still falls through and
is used as the next transmit slot one element past the end.

Reject indices at or above the queue depth before preparing the TX
descriptor.

Looks valid to me, index starts from 0 while count start from 1, so
index == count would probably overflow as well.

Unless the firmware corrupts DMA memory (or there's a serious firmware bug), tfd_index should never reach or exceed txq->count.  With that in mind, the change looks good to me.
