From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <moham...@qti.qualcomm.com> Fix invalid argument error while writing 'simulate_fw_crash', though the funcionality is working fine we get an error 'invalid argument' because 'count' value is not returned properly (no reason to reduce the count value for removing the newline)
Fixes the below write error: /sys/kernel/debug/ieee80211/phy0/ath10k# echo hw-restart > simulate_fw_crash -bash: echo: write error: Invalid argument Also move the 'conf_mutex' as it is really not required for fetching the userspace buffer.
