[PATCH 2/2] ath10k: fix scheduling while atomic bug

Recent WMI/HTC changes broke WEP with multiple
keys. If WMI had no HTC TX credits to submit
command for default wep index update it would
trigger a bug.
This simply moves the wep key index update to a
worker.
The key update may happen some time after first
frame with a different wep key has been sent (i.e.
some frames will be sent with old key). This was
the case before too as WMI commands were
asynchronous.
