ath10k: fix napi crash during rmmod when probe firmware fails
commit 1427228d5869f5804b03d47acfa4a88122572a78 upstream. This fixes the below crash when ath10k probe firmware fails, NAPI polling tries to access a rx ring resource which was never allocated. An easy way to reproduce this is easy to remove all the firmware files, load ath10k modules and ath10k will crash when calling 'rmmod ath10k_pci'. The fix is to call napi_enable() from ath10k_pci_hif_start() so that it matches with napi_disable() being called from ath10k_pci_hif_stop(). Big thanks to Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan who debugged this and provided first version of the fix. In this patch I just fix the actual problem in pci.c instead of having a workaround in core.c.
