i guess it could be crashing @ idx = __le32_to_cpu(*htt->rx_ring.alloc_idx.vaddr); in '__ath10k_htt_rx_ring_fill_n'
because 'ath10k_htt_rx_alloc' would be never called if loading board-2.bin
fails!!

should we check for 'ATH10K_FLAG_CORE_REGISTERED' in the ath10k_pci_napi_poll and just bail
out ? is it clean ? or should we do 'napi_disable(&ar->napi);' in the error
case of ath10k probe failure
