USB and (upcoming) SDIO support may sleep in the read/write handlers. Make rtw_watch_dog_work() use rtw_iterate_vifs() to prevent "scheduling while atomic" or "Voluntary context switch within RCU read-side critical section!" warnings when accessing the registers using an SDIO card (which is where this issue has been spotted in the real world but it also affects USB cards).
