cfg80211: fix sysfs registration race
My locking rework/race fixes caused a regression in the registration, causing uevent notifications for wireless devices before the device is really fully registered and available in nl80211. Fix this by moving the device_add() under rtnl and move the rfkill to afterwards (it can't be under rtnl.)
