rndis_wlan: fix initialization order for workqueue&workers
rndis_wext_link_change() might be called from rndis_command() at
initialization stage and priv->workqueue/priv->work have not been
initialized yet. This causes invalid opcode at rndis_wext_bind on
some brands of bcm4320.
Fix by initializing workqueue/workers in rndis_wext_bind() before
rndis_command is used.
This bug has existed since 2.6.25, reported at:
