Subject: [PATCH] iwlwifi: mvm: fix kernel panic in case of assert during CSA
Git-commit: fe56d05ee6c87f6a1a8c7267affd92c9438249cc
Patch-mainline: v5.10-rc6
References: git-fixes

During CSA, we briefly nullify the phy context, in __iwl_mvm_unassign_vif_chanctx.
In case we have a FW assert right after it, it remains NULL though.
We end up running into endless loop due to mac80211 trying repeatedly to
move us to ASSOC state, and we keep returning -EINVAL. Later down the road
we hit a kernel panic.

Detect and avoid this endless loop.
