p54: move statistic timer update routine into a workqueue
This patch moves a good chunk of code from the former statistic update
timer routine into a workqueue, which is kindly provided by mac80211.
Also as a nice side-effect we can lay the foundation for other
essential housekeeping features we want to do in the future.
e.g:
- drain the (clogged) tx_queue.
- initiate bursts.
