[PATCH 3.11 190/272] iwlwifi: don't WARN on host commands sent when firmware is dead

[Luis Henriques]

3.11.10.1 -stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------

From: Emmanuel Grumbach <emmanuel.grumbach@xxxxxxxxx>

commit 8ca95995e64f5d270889badb3e449dca91106a2b upstream.

This triggers automatic bug reports and add no valuable
information. Print a simple error instead and drop the
host command.
