wireless: hostap, fix oops due to early probing interrupt

Browse Source 
BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+bug/254837

Spurious shared interrupts or early probing interrupts can cause the
hostap interrupt handler to oops before the driver has fully configured
the IO base port addresses. In some cases the oops can be because
the hardware shares an interrupt line, on other cases it is due to a
race condition between probing for the hardware and configuring
the IO base port. The latter occurs because the probing is required to
determin the hardware port address which is only determined when the probe
can interrupt the hardware (catch 22).

This patch catches this pre-configured condition to avoid the oops.
