fix cfg80211_wext_siwfreq lock ordering...

I previously managed to reproduce a hang while scanning wireless
channels (reproducible with airodump-ng hopping channels); subsequent
lockdep instrumentation revealed a lock ordering issue.

Without knowing the design intent, it looks like the locks should be
taken in reverse order; please comment.

=======================================================
[ INFO: possible circular locking dependency detected ]
2.6.38-rc5-341cd #4
-------------------------------------------------------
airodump-ng/15445 is trying to acquire lock:
 (&rdev->devlist_mtx){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff816b1266>]
cfg80211_wext_siwfreq+0xc6/0x100

but task is already holding lock:
 (&wdev->mtx){+.+.+.}, at: [<ffffffff816b125c>] cfg80211_wext_siwfreq+0xbc/0x100

which lock already depends on the new lock.

the existing dependency chain (in reverse order) is:
