Wen Gong ed05c7cf12 ath11k: avoid deadlock by change ieee80211_queue_work for regd_update_work
When enable debug config, it print below warning while shut down wlan
interface shuh as run "ifconfig wlan0 down".

The reason is because ar->regd_update_work is ran once, and it is will
call wiphy_lock(ar->hw->wiphy) in function ath11k_regd_update() which
is running in workqueue of ieee80211_local queued by ieee80211_queue_work().
Another thread from "ifconfig wlan0 down" will also accuqire the lock
by wiphy_lock(sdata->local->hw.wiphy) in function ieee80211_stop(), and
then it call ieee80211_stop_device() to flush_workqueue(local->workqueue),
this will wait the workqueue of ieee80211_local finished. Then deadlock
will happen easily if the two thread run meanwhile.

Below warning disappeared after this change.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
