Subject: [PATCH 7/9] rtw88: Configure the registers from rtw_bf_assoc() outside the RCU lock

Upcoming SDIO support may sleep in the read/write handlers. Shrink the
RCU critical section so it only cover the ieee80211_find_sta() call and
finding the ic_vht_cap/vht_cap based on the found station. This moves
the chip's BFEE configuration outside the rcu_read_lock section and thus
prevent a "scheduling while atomic" issue when accessing the registers
using an SDIO card.

Signed-off-by: Martin Blumenstingl <martin.blumenstingl@...glemail.com>

v1 -> v2:
- shrink the critical section as suggested by Ping-Ke
