> Use non-atomic rtw_iterate_stas() in rtw_ra_mask_info_update() because
> the iterator function rtw_ra_mask_info_update_iter() needs to read and
> write registers from within rtw_update_sta_info(). Using the non-atomic
> iterator ensures that we can sleep during USB and SDIO register reads
> and writes. This fixes "scheduling while atomic" or "Voluntary context
> switch within RCU read-side critical section!" warnings as seen by SDIO
> card users (but it also affects USB cards).
