Thanks, but this was already fixed in ath6kl.git by this commit:

commit 3206209f231062170f060fdbae38faacff86ddbf
Author: Pandiyarajan Pitchaimuthu <c_ppitch@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>

ath6kl: Make use of return value from ath6kl_diag_read()

In ath6kl_read_fwlogs(), return value from ath6kl_diag_read()is not
used to bail out in case of any errors in reading fw log. No real issue
is observed because of this, reported by source code analyzer.
