mac80211: Add netif state checking to ieee80211_ifa_changed

There's a window for ieee80211_ifa_changed() to get called whilst the
managed mode mutex has not been initialized when opening and stopping the
interface. Currently this causes a kernel BUG like the following:

[  132.460013] kernel BUG at /home/wifi/iwlwifi-2.6/net/mac80211/main.c:380!
[  132.460013] invalid opcode: 0000 [#1] SMP

The mutex is initialized during open(), hence once netif_running() is true,
the mutex should be valid. Fix by adding a netif_running() check to the
function.
