ath10k: Fix kernel panic while using worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk)

BugLink: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1775771

[ Upstream commit 8b2d93dd ]

When attempt to run worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) after the station object
(ieee80211_sta) delete will trigger the kernel panic.

This problem arise in AP + Mesh configuration, Where the current node AP VAP
and neighbor node mesh VAP MAC address are same. When the current mesh node
try to establish the mesh link with neighbor node, driver peer creation for
the neighbor mesh node fails due to duplication MAC address. Already the AP
VAP created with same MAC address.

It is caused by the following scenario steps.

Steps:
1. In above condition, ath10k driver sta_state callback (ath10k_sta_state)
   fails to do the state change for a station from IEEE80211_STA_NOTEXIST
   to IEEE80211_STA_NONE due to peer creation fails. Sta_state callback is
   called from ieee80211_add_station() to handle the new station
   (neighbor mesh node) request from the wpa_supplicant.
2. Concurrently ath10k receive the sta_rc_update callback notification from
   the mesh_neighbour_update() to handle the beacon frames of the above
   neighbor mesh node. since its atomic callback, ath10k driver queue the
   work (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) to handle rc update.
3. Due to driver sta_state callback fails (step 1), mac80211 free the station
   object.
4. When the worker (ath10k_sta_rc_update_wk) scheduled to run, it will access
   the station object which is already deleted. so it will trigger kernel
   panic.

Added the peer exist check in sta_rc_update callback before queue the work.
