Ok, this bisects to this commit.  First (or sometimes second) NIC will load,
but the other one will not load firmware.  No obvious errors in dmesg.

Platform is x86-64, Fedora 20.  NICS:

03:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA988x 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter
04:00.0 Network controller: Qualcomm Atheros QCA988x 802.11ac Wireless Network Adapter

    ath10k: mask/unmask msi fw irq

    This was the final missing bit to making sure the
    device doesn't assert interrupts to host.

    This should fix possible race when target crashes
    during driver teardown.

    This also removes an early warm reset workaround
    during pci probing.
