wl12xx: avoid premature elp entrance

The elp_work is being enqueued on wl1271_ps_elp_sleep, but doesn't get
cancelled on wl1271_ps_elp_wakeup. This might cause immediate entrance
to elp when the wl->mutex is being released, rather than using the delayed
enqueueing optimization.

Cancel elp_work on wakeup request, and add a new WL1271_FLAG_ELP_REQUESTED
flag to further synchronize the elp actions.

[Fixed a couple of typos in some comments -- Luca]
