Subject: [PATCH v3 net-next 2/2] net: ethernet: mtk_wed: fix possible deadlock if mtk_wed_wo_init fails

Introduce __mtk_wed_detach() in order to avoid a deadlock in
mtk_wed_attach routine if mtk_wed_wo_init fails since both
mtk_wed_attach and mtk_wed_detach run holding hw_lock mutex.

Fixes: 4c5de09eb0d0 ("net: ethernet: mtk_wed: add configure wed wo support")
