Subject: [PATCH 5.3 043/180] brcmfmac: disable PCIe interrupts before bus reset

From: Rafał Miłecki <rafal@...ecki.pl>

commit 5d26a6a6150c486f51ea2aaab33af04db02f63b8 upstream.

Keeping interrupts on could result in brcmfmac freeing some resources
and then IRQ handlers trying to use them. That was obviously a straight
path for crashing a kernel.

Example:
CPU0                           CPU1
----                           ----
brcmf_pcie_reset
  brcmf_pcie_bus_console_read
  brcmf_detach
    ...
    brcmf_fweh_detach
    brcmf_proto_detach
                               brcmf_pcie_isr_thread
                                 ...
                                 brcmf_proto_msgbuf_rx_trigger
                                   ...
                                   drvr->proto->pd
    brcmf_pcie_release_irq
