From 6fd2c17fb6e02a8c0ab51df1cfec82ce96b8e83d Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Jose Alonso joalonsof@gmail.com Date: Mon, 8 Aug 2022 08:35:04 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] Revert "net: usb: ax88179_178a needs FLAG_SEND_ZLP"

This reverts commit 36a15e1cb134c0395261ba1940762703f778438c.

The usage of FLAG_SEND_ZLP causes problems to other firmware/hardware versions that have no issues.

The FLAG_SEND_ZLP is not safe to use in this context. See: https://patchwork.ozlabs.org/project/netdev/patch/1270599787.8900.8.camel@Li... The original problem needs another way to solve.
