mac80211: fix suspend/resume races with unregister hw
Above commit add rtnl_lock() into wiphy_register(), what cause deadlock
when initializing ipw2x00 driver, which itself call wiphy_register()
from register_netdev() internal callback with rtnl mutex taken.
To fix move wiphy_register() outside register_netdev(). This solution
have side effect of not creating /sys/class/net/wlanX/phy80211 link,
but that's a minor issue we can live with.
