rsi: stop thread firstly in rsi_91x_init() error handling
[ Upstream commit 515e7184bdf0a3ebf1757cc77fb046b4fe282189 ]
When fail to init coex module, free 'common' and 'adapter' directly, but
common->tx_thread which will access 'common' and 'adapter' is running at
the same time. That will trigger the UAF bug.
