[Patch net] atm: remove an unnecessary loop

From: Cong Wang <hidden>
Date: 2017-01-12 05:02:27
Subsystem: atm, networking [general], the rest · Maintainers: Chas Williams, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Linus Torvalds

alloc_tx() is already inside a wait loop for a successful skb
allocation, this loop inside alloc_tx() is quite unnecessary
and actually problematic.
