Currently mon reap timer is not used, and it is not needed anymore.

So remove related code.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3

Same question, does it fix a known issue or is just cleanup? Always
answer to the question 'why?'.

It is a clean up. Ath11k uses mon reap timer to implement rx pktlog. But ath12k doesn't support it yet. If we want to support, reuse the interrupt of monitor status ring is better. Because:
1. monitor mode also need the configuration of monitor status ring.
2. the rx pktlog is highly dependent on the implementation of monitor mode.
