[PATCH RESEND] wifi: ath9k: stop using owl context after completion

[Hongyan Xu]

owl_remove() waits for eeprom_load, but both owl_fw_cb() and
owl_nvmem_work() completed it before their last uses of ctx. The
devm-allocated context can therefore be freed while the async path still
dereferences it.

Take a pci_dev reference and copy ctx-owned pointers while ctx is still
protected. Complete only after ctx is no longer needed.
Keep the completion before owl_rescan(). Rescan can remove the device
synchronously.

This issue was found by a static analysis tool.
