ath12k may initially fail to allocate a large QMI DMA buffer and then retry successfully with a smaller allocation. The driver logs this as: qmi dma allocation failed (...), will try later with small size This is a recoverable fallback rather than a terminal WiFi probe error. Do not mark WiFi_Firmware_Driver or WiFi_OnOff as failed when this exact message is present. Signed-off-by: Vamsee Narapareddi <vnarapar@qti.qualcomm.com>
