BZ#566696

Description:
Without patch wireless connection dies in few seconds after association
without any error message, when working with dual band AP (WRT610N V1)
configured in N-only mode. Below detailed description from upstream
commits.

When receive reply_tx and ready to decrement the count for number of
tfds in queue, do error checking to prevent error condition and
tfds_in_queue become negative number.

Check the frame control for ieee80211_is_data_qos() is true before
counting the number of tfds can be free, the tfds_in_queue only
increment when ieee80211_is_data_qos() is true before transmit; so it
should only decrement if the type match.

Remove ieee80211_is_data_qos check for frame_ctrl in tx_resp to avoid
invalid information pass from uCode.

Upstream:
Patch is backport of two commits from net-2.6 tree.

    iwlwifi: error checking for number of tfds in queue

Testing:
I tested patch against regression on two machines with 5x00 adapters
with a few different AP settings.
