mac80211: simplify key locking

Browse source 
Since I recently made station management able
to sleep, I can now rework key management as
well; since it will no longer need a spinlock
and can also use a mutex instead, a bunch of
code to allow drivers' set_key to sleep while
key management is protected by a spinlock can
now be removed.
