[ Upstream commit f9559d818205a4a0b9cd87181ef46e101ea11157 ]
When the pds_core driver was first created there were some race conditions around using the adminq, especially for client drivers. To reduce the possibility of a race condition there's a check against pf->state in pds_client_adminq_cmd(). This is problematic for a couple of reasons:
1. The PDSC_S_INITING_DRIVER bit is set during probe, but not cleared until after everything in probe is complete, which includes creating the auxiliary devices. For pds_fwctl this means it can't make any adminq commands until after pds_core's probe is complete even though the adminq is fully up by the time pds_fwctl's auxiliary device is created.
2. The race conditions around using the adminq have been fixed and this path is already protected against client drivers calling pds_client_adminq_cmd() if the adminq isn't ready, i.e. see pdsc_adminq_post() -> pdsc_adminq_inc_if_up().
Fix this by removing the pf->state check in pds_client_adminq_cmd() because invalid accesses to pds_core's adminq is already handled by pdsc_adminq_post()->pdsc_adminq_inc_if_up().
