    wifi: iwlwifi: debug: fix crash in __iwl_err()
    
    [ Upstream commit 634c7b1bd08ca322537ab389f8cbd7bb543b5e45 ]
    
    In __iwl_err(), if we rate-limit the message away, then
    vaf.va is still NULL-initialized by the time we get to
    the tracing code, which then crashes. When it doesn't
    get rate-limited out, it's still wrong to reuse the old
    args2 that was already printed, which is why we bother
    making a copy in the first place.
    
    Assign vaf.va properly to fix this.
