Subject: iwlwifi: mvm: bail out if CTDP start operation fails
From: Luca Coelho <luciano.coelho@intel.com>
commit 75cfe338b8a6fadaa28879a969047554701a7589 upstream.
We were assigning the return value of iwl_mvm_ctdp_command() to a
variable, but never checking it. If this command fails, we should not
allow the interface up process to proceed, since it is potentially
dangerous to ignore thermal management requirements.
Fixes: commit 5c89e7bc557e ("iwlwifi: mvm: add registration to cooling device")
