cw1200: Prevent a lock-related hang in the cw1200_spi driver
The cw1200_spi driver tries to mirror the cw1200_sdio driver's lock API, which relies on sdio_claim_host/sdio_release_host to serialize hardware operations across multiple threads. Unfortunately the implementation was flawed, as it lacked a way to wake up the lock requestor when there was contention, often resulting in a hang. This problem was uncovered while trying to fix the spi-transfers-in-interrupt-context BUG() corrected in the previous patch. Many thanks to Dave Sizeburns for his assistance in fixing this.
