Both functions are called under socket lock, so the following happens when the CCID2 may send a new packet: * it sets sendwait = 1 in tx_send_packet and returns 0; * the subsequent call to tx_packet_sent clears the sendwait flag; * since tx_send_packet returns 0 if and only if sendwait == 1, the BUG_ON condition in tx_packet_sent is never satisfied, since that function is never called when tx_send_packet returns a value different from 0 (cf. dccp_write_xmit); * the call to tx_packet_sent clears the flag so that the condition "!sendwait" is true the next time tx_packet_sent is called. In other words, it is sufficient to just return 0 / not-0 to synchronise tx_send_packet and tx_packet_sent -- which is what the patch does.
