6.11-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let me know.
------------------
From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@xxxxxxxxx>
[ Upstream commit bfc0ed73e095cc3858d35731f191fa6e3d813262 ]
Revert commit dfdfe4be183b ("wifi: iwlwifi: remove retry loops in
start"), it turns out that there's an issue with the PNVM load
notification from firmware not getting processed, that this patch
has been somewhat successfully papering over. Since this is being
reported, revert the loop removal for now.
We will later at least clean this up to only attempt to retry if
there was a timeout, but currently we don't even bubble up the
failure reason to the correct layer, only returning NULL.
Fixes: dfdfe4be183b ("wifi: iwlwifi: remove retry loops in start")
