wcn36xx: handle rx skb allocation failure to avoid system crash

Lawrence reported that git clone could make system crash on a
Qualcomm ARM soc based device (DragonBoard, 1G memory without
swap) running 64bit Debian.

It's turned out the crash is related with rx skb allocation
failure. git could consume more than 600MB anonymous memory.
And system is in extremely memory shortage case.

But driver didn't handle the rx allocation failure case. This patch
doesn't submit skb to upper layer if rx skb allocation fails.
Instead, it reuse the old skb for rx DMA again. It's more like
drop the packets if system is in memory shortage case.

With this change, git clone is OOMed instead of system crash.

ASoC: Fixes for v4.4

Quite a large batch of fixes have come in since the merge window, mainly
driver specific ones but there's a couple of core ones:

- A fix for DAPM resume on active streams to ensure everything ends up
cleanly in the right state.
- Reset the DAPM cache when freeing widgets to fix a crash on driver
remove and reload.

The PM functions for nau8825 are new code which fix crashes on resume.

wcn36xx: introduce per-channel ring buffer locks

wcn36xx implements a ring buffer for transmitted frames for each
(high and low priority) DMA channel. The ring buffers are lockless:
new frames are inserted at the head of the queue, while finished
packets are reaped from the tail.

Unfortunately, the list manipulations are missing any kind of barriers
so are susceptible to various races: for example, a TX completion
handler might read an updated desc->ctrl before the head has actually
advanced, and then null out the ctl->skb pointer while it is still
being used in the TX path.

Simplify things here by adding a spin lock when traversing the ring.
This change increased stability for me without adding any noticeable
overhead on my platform (xperia z).
