Commit 9af7c32ceca8 ("ath10k: add target IRAM recovery feature support")
introduced a new firmware feature flag ATH10K_FW_FEATURE_IRAM_RECOVERY. But
this caused ath10k_pci module load to fail if ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA bit
was not enabled in the ath10k coredump_mask module parameter:

[ 2209.328190] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: qca9984/qca9994 hw1.0 target 0x01000000 chip_id 0x00000000 sub 168c:cafe

[ 2210.896485] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: board_file api 1 bmi_id 0:1 crc32 a040efc2
[ 2213.603339] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: failed to copy target iram contents: -12
[ 2213.839027] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not init core (-12)
[ 2213.933910] ath10k_pci 0000:02:00.0: could not probe fw (-12)

And by default coredump_mask does not have ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA
enabled so anyone using a firmware with iram-recovery feature would fail. To my
knowledge only QCA9984 firmwares starting from release 10.4-3.9.0.2-00099
enabled the feature.

The reason for regression was that ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() used
ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() to get the memory layout, but when
ATH10K_FW_CRASH_DUMP_RAM_DATA was disabled it would get just NULL and bail out
with an error.

While looking at all this I noticed another bug: if CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP is
disabled but the firmware has iram-recovery enabled the module load fails with
similar error messages. I fixed that by returning 0 from
ath10k_core_copy_target_iram() when _ath10k_coredump_get_mem_layout() returns
NULL.

Tested-on: QCA9984 hw2.0 PCI 10.4-3.9.0.2-00139

v2:

* rewrite the commit log

* more understandable naming for functions

* fix both the compile and runtime issues when CONFIG_DEV_COREDUMP is disabled
