[PATCH] scsi: pm8001: reject firmware update in fatal error state

[Sagar Biradar]

From: Kumar Meiyappan <kumar.meiyappan@microchip.com>

pm8001_store_update_fw() allows a firmware update request even
when the controller has already entered a fatal error state.

Firmware update is not valid once the controller is in that state,
and attempting it can lead to a call trace. Reject the request
early by checking controller_fatal_error, set the firmware
status to FAIL_PARAMETERS, and return -EINVAL.
