From: Jérôme Pouiller <jerome.pouiller@silabs.com>

Access to sta->ht_cap is protected by RCU. However,
hif_set_association_mode() may sleep, so it can't be called in RCU.

This patch fix this behavior by handling sta and its RCU directly from
function hif_set_association_mode().

Fixes: d00149011066 ("staging: wfx: fix RCU usage")
