[PATCH 04/12] iwlwifi: mvm: avoid FW restart while shutting down

From: Luca Coelho <hidden>
Date: 2021-08-02 14:18:44
Subsystem: intel wireless wifi link (iwlwifi), the rest · Maintainers: Miri Korenblit, Linus Torvalds

From: Johannes Berg <redacted>

If the firmware crashes while we're already shutting down
the system, there isn't much we can do since the shutdown
process is continuing and we wanted to do that. Don't do
a FW restart, with the implied debug collection, in this
case.
