For control IO, qeth currently tracks the index of the buffer that it expects to complete the next IO on each qeth_channel. If the channel presents an IRQ while this buffer has not yet completed, no completion processing for _any_ completed buffer takes place. So if the 'next buffer' is skipped for any sort of reason* (eg. when it is released due to error conditions, before the IO is started), the buffer obviously won't switch to PROCESSED until it is eventually allocated for a _different_ IO and completes. Until this happens, all completion processing on that channel stalls and pending requests possibly time out. As a fix, remove the whole 'next buffer' logic and simply process any IO buffer right when it completes. A channel will never have more than one IO pending, so there's no risk of processing out-of-sequence. *Note: currently just one location in the code really handles this problem, by advancing the 'next' index manually.
