hostap_cs: fix sleeping function called from invalid context
commit 4e5518ca53be29c1ec3c00089c97bef36bfed515 upstream. pcmcia_request_irq() and pcmcia_enable_device() are intended to be called from process context (first function allocate memory with GFP_KERNEL, second take a mutex). We can not take spin lock and call them. It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.
