USB and (upcoming) SDIO support may sleep in the read/write handlers.
Make rtw_watch_dog_work() use rtw_iterate_vifs() to prevent "scheduling
while atomic" or "Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side
critical section!" warnings when accessing the registers using an SDIO
card (which is where this issue has been spotted in the real world but
it also affects USB cards).
