Events processing requires locking of bus mutex, which is also used by
cfg80211 layer before calling several of cfg80211 callbacks. Since all
cfg80211 callbacks in qtnfmac driver also lock bus mutex, this
potentially may lead to a deadlock.
Do not use bus lock for event processing. Use RTNL lock instead to
serialize events and commands processing threads.
