[PATCH v4] net/ncsi: fix state race during channel probe completion

[Potin Lai <potin.lai.pt@gmail.com>]

From: Cosmo Chou <chou.cosmo@gmail.com>

During channel probing, the last NCSI_PKT_CMD_DP command can trigger
an unnecessary schedule_work() via ncsi_free_request(). We observed
that subsequent config states were triggered before the scheduled
work completed, causing potential state handling issues.

Fix this by clearing req_flags when processing the last package.
