[PATCH net-next 1/9] net: ipa: don't thaw channel if error starting

From: Alex Elder <hidden>
Date: 2021-01-29 20:22:17
Also in: netdev
Subsystem: networking drivers, qcom ipa driver, the rest · Maintainers: Andrew Lunn, "David S. Miller", Eric Dumazet, Jakub Kicinski, Paolo Abeni, Alex Elder, Linus Torvalds

If an error occurs starting a channel, don't "thaw" it.
We should assume the channel remains in a non-started state.

Update the comment in gsi_channel_stop(); calls to this function are
no longer retried.
