3.6.11.2 stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know. ------------------ From: Emmanuel Grumbach [ Upstream commit 2d5d50ee596361566f7f84300117cba7d7672bc5 ] There is a race between the restart flow and the workers. The workers are cancelled after the fw is already killed and might send HCMD when there is fw to handle them. Simply check that there is a fw to which the HCMD can be sent before actually sending it.
