In the Linux kernel, the following vulnerability has been resolved:
ath11k: mhi: use mhisyncpower_up()
If amss.bin was missing ath11k would crash during 'rmmod ath11kpci'. The reason for that was that we were using mhiasyncpowerup() which does not check any errors. But mhisyncpower_up() on the other hand does check for errors so let's use that to fix the crash.
I was not able to find a reason why an async version was used. ath11kmhistart() (which enables state ATH11KMHIPOWERON) is called from ath11khifpowerup(), which can sleep. So sync version should be safe to use here.
