wifi: ath12k: update channel list in worker when wait flag is set

[ Upstream commit 437c7a2db6a34db2a9048920694a2bf9b0169726 ]

With previous patch [1], ath12k_reg_update_chan_list() will be called
during reg_process_self_managed_hint().

reg_process_self_managed_hint() will hold rtnl_lock all the time.
But ath12k_reg_update_chan_list() may increase the occupation time of
rtnl_lock, because when wait flag is set, wait_for_completion_timeout()
will be called during 11d/hw scan.

Should minimize the occupation time of rtnl_lock as much as possible
to avoid interfering with rest of the system. So move the update channel
list operation to a new worker, so that wait_for_completion_timeout()
won't be called with the rtnl_lock held.

Tested-on: WCN7850 hw2.0 PCI WLAN.HMT.1.0.c5-00481-QCAHMTSWPL_V1.0_V2.0_SILICONZ-3
