Description

In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:

wifi: iwlwifi: don't warn when if there is a FW error

iwl_trans_reclaim is warning if it is called when the FW is not alive.
But if it is called when there is a pending restart, i.e. after a FW
error, there is no need to warn, instead - return silently.
