Two additional code paths iterate over active interfaces and call MCU
functions without proper mutex protection:
1. mt7925_set_runtime_pm(): Called when runtime PM settings change.
The callback mt7925_pm_interface_iter() calls mt7925_mcu_set_beacon_filter()
which in turn calls mt7925_mcu_set_rxfilter(). These MCU functions require
the device mutex to be held.
2. mt7925_mlo_pm_work(): A workqueue function for MLO power management.
The callback mt7925_mlo_pm_iter() was acquiring mutex internally, which
is inconsistent with the rest of the driver where the caller holds the
mutex during interface iteration.
These bugs can cause deadlocks when:
- Power management settings are changed while WiFi is active
- MLO power save state transitions occur during roaming
Move the mutex to the caller in mt7925_mlo_pm_work() for consistency
with the rest of the driver, and add mutex protection in
mt7925_set_runtime_pm().
Found through static analysis (clang-tidy) and comparison with the
MT7615 driver which correctly acquires mutex before interface iteration.
