ps3_gelic: Fix start_xmit kick error path
Revert to a proper state when gelic_card_kick_txdma() fails: - Don't trigger BUG_ON when releasing the unsent tx descriptor - Reset the tx chain head since the tail was not modified and hence not in sync - Unlink the released descriptor bus address from its predecessor Signed-off-by: Andre Heider <a.heider@gmail.com> Acked-by: Geoff Levand <geoff@infradead.org> Signed-off-by: David S. Miller <davem@davemloft.net>
