Arend van Spriel e64a4b708f brcm80211: fmac: remove firmware requests from init_module syscall ...

As indicated in [1] on netdev mailing list drivers should not block
on the init_module() syscall. This patch defers the actual driver
registration to a workqueue so the init_module() syscall can complete
without delay.
