wifi: mt76: mt7915: mcu: re-init MCU before loading FW patch
[ Upstream commit ac9c50c79eaef5fca0f165e45d0c5880606db53e ] Restart the MCU and release the patch semaphore before loading the MCU patch firmware from the host. This fixes failures upon error recovery in case the semaphore was previously taken and never released by the host. This happens from time to time upon triggering a full-chip error recovery. Under this circumstance, the hardware restart fails and the radio is rendered inoperational.
