iwlwifi: handle RFKILL logic in the transport layer
No HCMD can be sent while RFKILL is asserted. If a SYNC command is running while RFKILL is asserted the fw will silently discard it. This means that the driver needs to wake the process that sleeps on the CMD_SYNC. Since the RFKILL interrupt is handled in the transport layer and the code that sleeps in CMD_SYNC is also in the transport layer, all this logic can be handled there. This simplifies the work of the op_mode. So the transport layer will now return -ERFKILL when a CMD is sent and RFKILL is asserted. This will be the case even when the CMD is SYNC. The transport layer will return -ERFKILL straight away. Signed-off-by: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@intel.com> Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@intel.com>
