wcn36xx: Reduce spinlock in indication handler
The purpose of pushing indication on a list and handle these in a separate worker is to allow the handlers to sleep. It does therefor not make much sense to hold the queue spinlock through the entire indication worker function. By removing items from the queue early we don't need to hold the lock throughout the indication worker, allowing the individual handlers to sleep.
