ath9k: Skip FFT reports if we are out of output buffers
There is no reason to keep processing FFT reports if there is no space left on the relayfs buffers for the results. This saves lots of CPU cycles, especially on normal (non-short) reports. Signed-off-by: Nick Kossifidis <mickflemm@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>
