Subject: [PATCH net v3 1/2] amt: fix gateway mode stuck

If a gateway can not receive any response to requests from a relay,
gateway resets status from SENT_REQUEST to INIT and variable about a
relay as well. And then it should start the full establish step
from sending a discovery message and receiving advertisement message.
But, after failure in amt_req_work() it continues sending a request
message step with flushed(invalid) relay information and sets SENT_REQUEST.
So, a gateway can't be established with a relay.
In order to avoid this situation, it stops sending the request message
step if it fails.
