Manikanta Pubbisetty e15d84b3bb wifi: ath10k: Fix memory leak in management tx 
In the current logic, memory is allocated for storing the MSDU context
during management packet TX but this memory is not being freed during
management TX completion. Similar leaks are seen in the management TX
cleanup logic.

Kmemleak reports this problem as below,

unreferenced object 0xffffff80b64ed250 (size 16):
  comm "kworker/u16:7", pid 148, jiffies 4294687130 (age 714.199s)
  hex dump (first 16 bytes):
    00 2b d8 d8 80 ff ff ff c4 74 e9 fd 07 00 00 00  .+.......t......

    [<ffffffe6e78166c0>] ret_from_fork+0x10/0x20

Free the memory during completion and cleanup to fix the leak.

Protect the mgmt_pending_tx idr_remove() operation in
ath10k_wmi_tlv_op_cleanup_mgmt_tx_send() using ar->data_lock similar to
other instances.

Tested-on: WCN3990 hw1.0 SNOC WLAN.HL.2.0-01387-QCAHLSWMTPLZ-1

Fixes: c730c47717 ("ath10k: Remove msdu from idr when management pkt send fails")

README 

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 reStructuredText 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.
