iwlwifi: do not send lq cmd when station add fails
When adding a station fails in iwl_restore_stations, the driver treats it like a successful station add and sends a link quality command, when it it shouldn't. This patch fixes one of the potential sources for kernel warnings like this one: WARNING: at drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-agn-sta.c:905 iwl_send_lq_cmd+0x130/0x217 [iwlwifi]() Hardware name: 3323A2G Modules linked in: ...
