I suspect that this may a bit racy if there is concurrent tx activity
(e.g. for EAP auth). Not sure if this could cause problems for the
firmware or other kinds of bugs.
While my idea may need some rework of the existing functions, I think a
better flow would be:
1. mt76_sta_pre_rcu_remove
2. save old wcid
3. mt7915_sta_add
4. synchronize_rcu()
5. remove firmware state for old wcid entry
