[Linux-kernel-mentees] [PATCH v4 03/12] ath9k: Check if pcie_capability_read_*() reads ~0

On failure pcie_capability_read_dword() sets it's last parameter, val
to 0. However, with Patch 12/12, it is possible that val is set to ~0
on failure. This would introduce a bug because (x & x) == (~0 & x).

Since ~0 is an invalid value here,

Add an extra check for ~0 to the if condition to ensure success.
