do we really need to wait here?
Why don't just do something like that:

	tasklet_disable(&card->tlet);
	spin_lock(&card->tx_queue_lock);
	for each skb in queue
		SKB_CB(skb)->vcc = NULL;
	spin_unlock(&card->tx_queue_lock);
	tasklet_enable(&card->tlet);

or if we really want to call vcc->pop() for such skbs:

	tasklet_disable(&card->tlet);
	spin_lock(&card->tx_queue_lock);
	for each skb in queue {
		skb_get(skb);
		solos_pop(SKB_CB(skb)->vcc, skb);
		SKB_CB(skb)->vcc = NULL;
	}
	spin_unlock(&card->tx_queue_lock);
	tasklet_enable(&card->tlet);
Yes, we could certainly remove the packets from the tx_queue first.

However, in the card->using_dma case there might be a skb for this vcc
*currently* being DMA'd, and we'd still need to wait for that one.
Removing packets from tx_queue is not needed. We can transmit packets
also after close. We just can't call vcc->pop() after close,
so we can just set SKB_CB(skb)->vcc of such packets to NULL so fpga_tx()
won't call vcc->pop().

Maybe I was not precise enough, I'm think that all we need is
something like that:

After atmdev_ops->close() we cannot use vcc->pop() because the vcc may,
and probably will be destroyed.

We can just set vcc for such frames to NULL because fpga_tx() after
completion will call dev_kfree_skb() in that case.
