ibmvnic: Free any outstanding tx skbs during scrq reset
There are 2 types of outstanding tx skb's:
Type 1: Packets that are sitting in the drivers ind_buff that are
waiting to be batch sent to the NIC. During a device reset, these are
freed with a call to ibmvnic_tx_scrq_clean_buffer()
Type 2: Packets that have been sent to the NIC and are awaiting a TX
completion IRQ. These are free'd during a reset with a call to
clean_tx_pools()
During any reset which requires us to free the tx irq, ensure that the
Type 2 skb references are freed. Since the irq is released, it is
impossible for the NIC to inform of any completions.
Furthermore, later in the reset process is a call to init_tx_pools()
which marks every entry in the tx pool as free (ie not outstanding).
So if the driver is to make a call to init_tx_pools(), it must first
be sure that the tx pool is empty of skb references.
This issue was discovered by observing the following in the logs during
EEH testing:
TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 0 idx=4)
TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 0 idx=5)
TX free map points to untracked skb (tso_pool 1 idx=36)
