From: Sean Wang <sean.wang@xxxxxxxxxxxx> Because wake_work and sdio->stat_work share the same workqueue mt76->wq, if sdio->stat_work cannot acquire the mutex lock such as that was possibly held up by [mt7615, mt7921]_mutex_acquire. Additionally, if [mt7615, mt7921]_mutex_acquire was called by sdio->stat_work self, the wake would be blocked by itself. Thus, we move the stat_work into ieee80211_workqueue instead to break the deadlock.
