[PATCH ath-next] wifi: ath9k: release the LED GPIO after ath9k_stop()

[Rosen Penev]

ath9k_deinit_device() frees the LED pin in ath_deinit_leds() before it
unregisters the hw. ath9k_stop() then switches the LED pin back to an
input with ath9k_hw_gpio_request_in(). For a SoC GPIO outside of the
WMAC, ath9k_hw_gpio_request() takes a new descriptor through
gpiod_get_index() at that point, and nothing releases it again. The
next probe fails with "request GPIO12 failed:-16" and every LED update
hits the WARN_ON() in ath9k_hw_set_gpio(). That request also runs
under sc->sc_pcu_lock, while gpiod_get_index() and
gpiod_set_consumer_name() may sleep.

Free the LED pin after ieee80211_unregister_hw() instead. This also
frees the pin when the LED class device could not be registered,
which leaked it before.

Seen on a TP-Link Archer C7 v2 (QCA9558, LED on SoC GPIO 12) when
reloading ath9k.
