A hardware/firmware error may happen at any point in time. In particular, it might happen while mac80211 is in the middle of a flow. We observed the following situation: * mac80211 is in authentication flow, in ieee80211_prep_connection() * iwlwifi firmware crashes, but no error can be reported at this precise point (mostly because the driver method is void, but even if it wasn't we'd just shift to a race condition) * mac80211 continues the flow, trying to add the AP station * iwlwifi has already set its internal restart flag, and so thinks that adding the station is part of the restart and already set up, so it uses the information that's supposed to already be in the struct This can happen with any flow in mac80211 and with any information we try to preserve across hardware restarts. To fix this, only set a new HW_RESTART_REQUESTED flag and translate that to IN_HW_RESTART once mac80211 actually starts the restart by calling our start() method. As a consequence, any mac80211 flow in progress at the time of the restart will properly finish (certainly with errors), before the restart is attempted.
