[PATCH] ath10k: move irq setup

There was a slight race during PCI shutdown. Since
interrupts weren't really stopped (only Copy
Engine interrupts were disabled through device hw
registers) it was possible for a firmware
indication (crash) interrupt to come in after
tasklets were synced/killed. This would cause
memory corruption and a panic in most cases. It
was also possible for interrupt to come before CE
was initialized during device probing.

Interrupts are required for BMI phase so they are
enabled as soon as power_up() is called but are
freed upon both power_down() and stop() so there's
asymmetry here. As by design stop() cannot be
followed by start() it is okay. Both power_down()
and stop() should be merged later on to avoid
confusion.

Before this can be really properly fixed var/hw
init code split is necessary.

Please note: this is based on my (still under
review at the time of posting) previous patchests:
device setup refactor and recovery.

I'm posting this before those patchsets are merged
so anyone interested in testing this fix (I can't
reproduce the problem on my setup) can give it a
try.
