ath10k: fix crash during card removal
Usually when the firmware crashes we check for the value 'FW_IND_EVENT_PENDING' in 'FW_INDICATOR_ADDRESS' and proceed with disabling the irq and dumping firmware 'crash dump'. Now when the PCI card is unplugged from the device the PCI controller seems to generate a spurious interrupt after some time which was as treated a firmware crash and resulting in the below race condition (and eventually crashing the system) ath10k_core_unregister -> ath10k_core_free_board_files ...... device unplug spurious interrupt ......... ath10k_pci_taklet -> ath10k_pci_fw_crashed_dump ...etc Clearly even after the firmware board files related data structure is freed up we are getting a spurious interrupt from PCI with 0xfffffff in the 'FW_INDICATOR_ADDRESS' resulting in scheduling of the pci tasklet and doing a crash dump, printing f/w board related info resulting in the below crash. Fix this by detecting this spurious interrupt in ath10k PCI irq handler itself and return IRQ_NONE. Thanks to Michal Kazior for helping us conclude the most appropriate fix.
