wifi: mac80211: take lock before setting vif links
[ Upstream commit 15846f95ab01b71fdb1cef8df73680aad41edf70 ]
ieee80211_vif_set_links requires the sdata->local->mtx lock to be held.
Add the appropriate locking around the calls in both the link add and
remove handlers.
This causes a warning when e.g. ieee80211_link_release_channel is called
via ieee80211_link_stop from ieee80211_vif_update_links.
