[PATCH 1/3] mt76: mt7921s: fix the deadlock caused by sdio->stat_work

From: Sean Wang <sean.wang at mediatek.com>

Because wake_work and sdio->stat_work share the same workqueue mt76->wq,
if sdio->stat_work cannot acquire the mutex lock such as that was possibly
held up by mt7921_mutex_acquire, we should exit immediately and schedule
another stat_work to avoid blocking the mt7921_mutex_acquire.

Also, if mt7921_mutex_acquire was called by sdio->stat_work self, the wake
would be blocked by itself, so we have to changing into an unblocking wake
(directly wakeup via mt7921_mcu_drv_pmctrl, not via the wake_work) in the
context.
