commit 64e03ff72623b8c2ea89ca3cb660094e019ed4ae upstream.
When allocating a new AOB fails, handle_outbound() is still capable of
transmitting the selected buffer (just without async completion).
But if a previous transfer on this queue slot used async completion, its
sbal_state flags field is still set to QDIO_OUTBUF_STATE_FLAG_PENDING.
So when the upper layer driver sees this stale flag, it expects an async
completion that never happens.
Fix this by unconditionally clearing the flags field.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. 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.
