mac80211: fix remain-on-channel cancel crash
commit 3fbd45ca8d1c98f3c2582ef8bc70ade42f70947b upstream. If a ROC item is canceled just as it expires, the work struct may be scheduled while it is running (and waiting for the mutex). This results in it being run after being freed, which obviously crashes. To fix this don't free it when aborting is requested but instead mark it as "to be freed", which makes the work a no-op and allows freeing it outside.
