ath11k: Handle failure in qmi firmware ready 



In some scenarios like firmware crashes during init time
and hardware gets restarted after qmi firmware ready event.
During restart, ath11k_core_qmi_firmware_ready() returns timeout.
But, this failure is not handled and ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is set.

When hardware restart completed, firmware sends firmware ready event
again. Since ATH11K_FLAG_REGISTERED is already set, ath11k handles
this as core restart. Inits are not done because of previous timeout.
But ath11k_core_restart does deinit's which causes NULL pointer crash.

Fix this by handling failure from ath11k_core_qmi_firmware_ready().

Tested-on: QCN9074 hw1.0 PCI WLAN.HK.2.7.0.1-00881-QCAHKSWPL_SILICONZ-1
