rndis_wext_link_change() might be called from rndis_command() at initialization stage and priv->workqueue/priv->work have not been initialized yet. This causes invalid opcode at rndis_wext_bind on some brands of bcm4320. Fix by initializing workqueue/workers in rndis_wext_bind() before rndis_command is used.
