wifi: ath11k: Don't exit on wakeup failure
Currently, ath11k_pcic_read() returns an error if wakeup() fails, this makes firmware crash debug quite hard because we can get nothing. Change to go ahead on wakeup failure, in that case we still may get something valid to check. There should be no mislead due to incorrect content because we are aware of the failure with the log printed.
