iwlwifi: don't access the HW when it is not available

When we kill the radio with the RF kill button we could access
the HW after having stopped the APM which would result in the
warning below.

The flow goes like this:
* RF kill
iwlwifi notifies the stack which stops the driver
fw sends CARD_STATE_NOTIFICATION
* iwl_trans_pcie_stop_device stops the APM
* the tasklet runs and calls to iwl_rx_handle
* iwl_rx_handle calls iwl_rx_queue_restock
* iwl_rx_queue_restock tries to access the HW...
