Commit b716bb91 ("iwlwifi: Cancel scanning upon association") moved the
test of priv->vif in iwl{3945,4964}_mac_config_interface() outside of
where priv->mutex is held, but still tries to do mutex_unlock() on
return. This is clearly wrong and triggers a nasty lockdep warning when
this codepath is triggered. Fix this by removing the mutex_unlock().

Assuming the original b716bb91 commit is correct, this is probably the
right fix. But I'm not sure if it's correct to look at priv->vif
without holding priv->mutex, so maybe the fix is more complicated.
