Card reset is implemented by removing/re-adding the adapter instance.
This is implemented by removing the mmc host, which will then trigger
a cascade of removal callbacks including mwifiex_sdio_remove.
The dead-lock results in the latter function, trying to cancel the work
item executing the mmc host removal. This patch adds a driver level,
not adapter level, work struct to break the dead-lock
