Subject: [PATCH AUTOSEL 5.16 48/52] habanalabs: skip read fw errors if dynamic descriptor invalid

From: Ohad Sharabi <osharabi@...ana.ai>

[ Upstream commit 4fac990f604e6c10538026835a8a30f3c1b6fcf5 ]

Reporting FW errors involves reading of the error registers.

In case we have a corrupted FW descriptor we cannot do that since the
dynamic scratchpad is potentially corrupted as well and may cause kernel
crush when attempting access to a corrupted register offset.
