This reverts commit 4ba7d9997869d25bd223dea7536fc1ce9fab3b3b.

The original patch was a misguided attempt to improve performance on
some hardware that is apparently prone to spurious interrupt generation.

We have documented case of very bad performance issue on rt2800pci
device, because it generate spurious interrupt, what cause irq line
is disabled: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=658451

We already address that problem in separate patch by returning
IRQ_HANDLED from interrupt handler. We think similar fix is needed for
other rt2x00 PCI devices, because users report performance problems on
these devices too.

<title>rt2x00: Fix sleep-while-atomic bug in powersaving code.</title>

<id>ed66ba472a742cd8df37d7072804b2111cdb1014</id>
<content type='text'>
The generic powersaving code that determines after reception of a frame
whether the device should go back to sleep or whether is could stay
awake was calling rt2x00lib_config directly from RX tasklet context.
On a number of the devices this call can actually sleep, due to having
to confirm that the sleeping commands have been executed successfully.

Fix this by moving the call to rt2x00lib_config to a workqueue call.

This fixes bug https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=731672
