You could skip using the res variable and move the mutex lock here and
simplify the above a bit. Ex:

        int temp;

-       mutex_lock(&mvm->mutex);
+       if (!iwl_mvm_firmware_running(mvm))
+               return -EAGAIN;

-       if (!iwl_mvm_firmware_running(mvm) ||
-           mvm->fwrt.cur_fw_img != IWL_UCODE_REGULAR) {
+       mutex_lock(&mvm->mutex);
+       if (mvm->fwrt.cur_fw_img != IWL_UCODE_REGULAR) {
                ret = -ENODATA;
                goto out;
        }
