Staging driver fixes for 5.17-rc8

Here are 3 small fixes for staging drivers for 5.17-rc8 or -final, which ever comes next.

They resolve some reported problems:
- rtl8723bs wifi driver deadlock fix for reported problem that is a revert of a previous patch. Also a documentation fix is added so that the same problem hopefully can not come back again.
- gdm724x driver use-after-free fix for a reported problem.

All of these have been in linux-next for a while with no reported problems.
