From d556023895c8968fd97ccb08300006b78975a23b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Ido Yariv Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 17:17:13 +0300 Subject: [PATCH] wlcore: Allow memory access when the FW crashes When the no_recovery flag is used, the recovery work will not restart the FW and the state will not be set to 'on'. To enable post-mortem analysis, allow memory access in the 'restarting' state. Also, since the FW might not be operational, don't fail the read/write operations if elp_wakeup fails.
