[SRU][F][PATCH 1/3] media: cec: abort if the current transmit was canceled

From: Hans Verkuil <hverkuil-cisco at xs4all.nl>

If a transmit-in-progress was canceled, then, once the transmit
is done, mark it as aborted and refrain from retrying the transmit.

To signal this situation the new transmit_in_progress_aborted field is
set to true.

The old implementation would just set adap->transmitting to NULL and
set adap->transmit_in_progress to false, but on the hardware level
the transmit was still ongoing. However, the framework would think
the transmit was aborted, and if a new transmit was issued, then
it could overwrite the HW buffer containing the old transmit with the
new transmit, leading to garbled data on the CEC bus.
