b43: Workaround circular locking in hw-tkip key update callback
The TKIP key update callback is called from the RX path, where the driver
mutex is already locked. This results in a circular locking bug.
Avoid this by removing the lock.
Johannes noted that there is a separate bug: The callback still breaks on SDIO
hardware, because SDIO hardware access needs to sleep, but we are not allowed
to sleep in the callback due to mac80211's RCU locking.
