This patch series includes some fixes when the device
is in recovery mode, i.e. when the firmware goes down.

- Pausing TX queues when FW goes down
- Removed unwanted/extra error logging in pkt TX path
- Skipping wait for FW response for delete cmds
- Handling the -ESHUTDOWN error code in case of SSR.

  ath10k: Pause the tx queues when firmware is down
  ath10k: Skip wait for delete response if firmware is down
This has been tested only on WCN3990. How do I know that this doesn't
break other hardware families?
" ath10k: Pause the tx queues when firmware is down"
This is done only for SNOC (wcn3990) target and does not affect other
targets.

" ath10k: Skip wait for delete response if firmware is down"
The skip for wmi responses is done based on the flag
"ATH10K_FLAG_CRASH_FLUSH", which is generic for all targets.
Since if the FW is down, there wont be any response from the FW for any
target.
