Workers may not call into a sleepable function (e.g. mutex_lock). Since ath10k workers can run for a very long time it is necessary to explicitly allow process rescheduling in case there's no preemption. This fixes some issues with system freezes, hangs, watchdogs being triggered, userspace being unresponsive on slow host machines under heavy load.
