wireless: ath9k-htc: fix possible use after free
Inside ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_fail(), the instance of
'struct struct hif_device_usb' may be freed by
ath9k_hif_usb_disconnect() after
complete(&hif_dev->fw_done);
But 'hif_dev' is still accessed after the line code
above is executed.
This patch fixes the issue by not accessing 'hif_dev'
after 'complete(&hif_dev->fw_done)' inside
ath9k_hif_usb_firmware_fail().
