Karthik M e995f3f602 wifi: ath12k: fix potential wmi_mgmt_tx_queue race condition
During stress test with maximum VAPs and peer connected, below warning
is seen:

[ 1079.110967] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full
[ 1079.117708] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28
[ 1079.123191] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full
[ 1079.129960] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: failed to queue management frame -28
[ 1079.135641] ath12k_pci 0004:01:00.0: mgmt tx queue is full

This is caused by potential race condition while accessing skb_queue_len().
When ath12k_mgmt_over_wmi_tx_work() and ath12k_mac_mgmt_tx() is called concurrently,
then skb_queue_len() might fetch list length which is modified by skb_queue_tail()
or skb_dequeue().

Replace skb_queue_len() with skb_queue_len_lockless() which will
prevent concurrent modified access using READ_ONCE(). And also use '>=',
in case we queue a few SKBs simultaneously.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
