ncsi_channel_monitor() misses stopping the channel monitor in several
places that it should, causing a WARN_ON_ONCE() to trigger when the
monitor is re-started later, eg:

This also updates the monitor instead of just returning if
ncsi_xmit_cmd() fails to send the get-link-status command so that the
monitor properly times out.
