mac80211: use correct station flags lock
This code is modifying the station flags, and as such should hold the flags lock so it can do so atomically vs. other flags modifications and readers. This issue was introduced when this code was added in eccb8e8f, as it used the wrong lock (thus not fixing the race that was previously documented in a comment.)
