Herton Ronaldo Krzesinski 6a8171f261 rtl8187: fix circular locking (rtl8187_stop/rtl8187_work)
Larry Finger reports following lockdep warning:

[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.31-rc6-wl #201
-------------------------------------------------------
rfkill/30578 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&(&priv->work)->work#2){+.+...}, at: [<ffffffff81051215>]
__cancel_work_timer+0xd9/0x222

but task is already holding lock:
 (&priv->conf_mutex#2){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffffa064a024>]
rtl8187_stop+0x31/0x364 [rtl8187]

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:

-> #1 (&priv->conf_mutex#2){+.+.+.}:
       [<ffffffff81065957>] __lock_acquire+0x12d0/0x1614
       [<ffffffff81065d54>] lock_acquire+0xb9/0xdd
       [<ffffffff8127c32f>] mutex_lock_nested+0x56/0x2a8
       [<ffffffffa064a392>] rtl8187_work+0x3b/0xf2 [rtl8187]
       [<ffffffff81050758>] worker_thread+0x1fa/0x30a
       [<ffffffff81054ca5>] kthread+0x8f/0x97
       [<ffffffff8100cb7a>] child_rip+0xa/0x20
       [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

-> #0 (&(&priv->work)->work#2){+.+...}:
       [<ffffffff8106568c>] __lock_acquire+0x1005/0x1614
       [<ffffffff81065d54>] lock_acquire+0xb9/0xdd
       [<ffffffff8105124e>] __cancel_work_timer+0x112/0x222
       [<ffffffff8105136b>] cancel_delayed_work_sync+0xd/0xf
       [<ffffffffa064a33f>] rtl8187_stop+0x34c/0x364 [rtl8187]
       [<ffffffffa0242866>] ieee80211_stop_device+0x29/0x61 [mac80211]
       [<ffffffffa0239194>] ieee80211_stop+0x476/0x530 [mac80211]
       [<ffffffff8120ce15>] dev_close+0x8a/0xac
       [<ffffffffa01d9fa7>] cfg80211_rfkill_set_block+0x4a/0x7a [cfg80211]
       [<ffffffffa01bf4f0>] rfkill_set_block+0x84/0xd9 [rfkill]
       [<ffffffffa01bfc31>] rfkill_fop_write+0xda/0x124 [rfkill]
       [<ffffffff810cf286>] vfs_write+0xae/0x14a
       [<ffffffff810cf3e6>] sys_write+0x47/0x6e
       [<ffffffff8100ba6b>] system_call_fastpath+0x16/0x1b
       [<ffffffffffffffff>] 0xffffffffffffffff

The problem here is that rtl8187_stop, while helding priv->conf_mutex,
runs cancel_delayed_work_sync on an workqueue that runs rtl8187_work,
which also takes priv->conf_mutex lock. Move cancel_delayed_work_sync
out of rtl8187_stop priv->conf_mutex locking region.
