wifi: iwlwifi: pcie: fix possible NULL pointer dereference
[ Upstream commit b655b9a9f8467684cfa8906713d33b71ea8c8f54 ]
It is possible that iwl_pci_probe() will fail and free the trans,
then afterwards iwl_pci_remove() will be called and crash by trying
to access trans which is already freed, fix it.
