rtw88: avoid circular locking between local->iflist_mtx and rtwdev->mutex

Remove circular lock dependency by using atomic version of interfaces
iterate in watch_dog_work(), hence avoid taking local->iflist_mtx
(rtw_vif_watch_dog_iter() only update some data, it can be called from
atomic context). Fixes below LOCKDEP warning:
