Edward Adam Davis fc88dee89d wifi: cfg80211: init wiphy_work before allocating rfkill fails
syzbort reported a uninitialize wiphy_work_lock in cfg80211_dev_free. [1]

After rfkill allocation fails, the wiphy release process will be performed,
which will cause cfg80211_dev_free to access the uninitialized wiphy_work
related data.

Move the initialization of wiphy_work to before rfkill initialization to
avoid this issue.

[1]
INFO: trying to register non-static key.
The code is fine but needs lockdep annotation, or maybe
you didn't initialize this object before use?
turning off the locking correctness validator.

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
