[PATCH v2 0/4] wifi: ath12k: fix dest ring-buffer corruption

[Johan Hovold <johan+linaro@kernel.org>]

As a follow up to commit:

	b67d2cf14ea ("wifi: ath12k: fix ring-buffer corruption")

add the remaining missing memory barriers to make sure that destination
ring descriptors are read after the head pointers to avoid using stale
data on weakly ordered architectures like aarch64.

Also switch back to plain accesses for the descriptor fields which is
sufficient after the memory barrier.

New in v2 are two patches that add the missing barriers also for source
rings and when updating the tail pointer for destination rings.

To avoid leaking ring details from the "hal" (lmac or non-lmac), the
barriers are added to the ath12k_hal_srng_access_end() helper. For
symmetry I therefore moved also the dest ring barriers into
ath12k_hal_srng_access_begin() and made the barrier conditional.

[ Due to this change I did not add Miaoqing's reviewed-by tag. ]

Johan


Changes in v2:
 - add tested-on tags to plain access patch
 - move destination barriers into begin helper
 - fix source ring corruption (new patch)
 - fix dest ring corruption when ring is full (new patch)
