syzbot is reporting kernel panic at ath9k_htc_rxep() [1], for ath9k_htc_rxep() depends on ath9k_rx_init() being already completed. Since ath9k_htc_rxep() is set by ath9k_htc_connect_svc(WMI_BEACON_SVC) from ath9k_init_htc_services(), it is possible that ath9k_htc_rxep() is called via timer interrupt before ath9k_rx_init() from ath9k_init_device() is called. Since we can't call ath9k_init_device() before ath9k_init_htc_services(), let's hold ath9k_htc_rxep() no-op until ath9k_rx_init() completes.
