cfg80211: fix race condition with wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory()
We forgot to lock using the cfg80211_mutex in wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). Without the lock there is possible race between processing a reply from CRDA and a driver calling wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory(). During the processing of the reply from CRDA we free last_request and wiphy_apply_custom_regulatory() eventually accesses an element from last_request in the through freq_reg_info_regd(). This is very difficult to reproduce (I haven't), it takes us 3 hours and you need to be banging hard, but the race is obvious by looking at the code. This should only affect those who use this caller, which currently is ath5k, ath9k, and ar9170.
