The patch below adds a call to ath10k_debug_fw_stats_request(ar),
which expects ar->conf_mutex to be held, but it is *not* held in
this code path.  This leads to warnings when lockdep is enabled.

     ath10k: enable rx duration report default for wmi tlv

     When run command "iw dev wlan0 station dump", the rx duration is 0.
     When firmware indicate WMI_UPDATE_STATS_EVENTID, extended flag of
     statsis not set by default, so firmware do not report rx duration.


Thanks,
Ben
