mwifiex: fix system hang issue in cmd timeout error case
Reported by Tim Shepard:
I was seeing sporadic failures (wedgeups), and the majority of those
failures I saw printed the printouts in mwifiex_cmd_timeout_func with
cmd = 0xe5 which is CMD_802_11_HS_CFG_ENH. When this happens, two
minutes later I get notified that the rtcwake thread is blocked, like
this:
INFO: task rtcwake:3495 blocked for more than 120 seconds.
To get the hung thread unblocked we wake up the cmd wait queue and
cancel the ioctl.
