ath10k: fix kernel panic due to use after free

Browse Source 
This issue arise in a race condition between ath10k_sta_state() and
ath10k_htt_fetch_peer_stats(), explained in below scenario

Steps:
1. In ath10k_sta_state(), arsta->tx_stats get deallocated before peer deletion
   when the station moves from IEEE80211_STA_NONE to IEEE80211_STA_NOTEXIST
   state.
2. Meanwhile ath10k receive HTT_T2H_MSG_TYPE_PEER_STATS message.
   In ath10k_htt_fetch_peer_stats(), arsta->tx_stats get accessed after
   the peer validation check.

Since arsta->tx_stats get freed before the peer deletion [1].
ath10k_htt_fetch_peer_stats() ended up in "use after free" situation.

Fixed this issue by moving the arsta->tx_stats free handling after the
peer deletion. so that ath10k_htt_fetch_peer_stats() will not end up in
"use after free" situation.
