iwlagn: verify mutex held for sync commands

Browse source 
Emmanuel noticed that there's no explicit checking
that prevents the driver from attempting to issue
multiple synchronous commands at the same time and
wrote a patch to check. However, his patch warns
only if a collision actually happened, an unlikely
thing since the driver mutex should be held for
synchronous command submissions.

So instead of checking that a collision happened
add a check that the mutex is held which ensures
that collisions can't happen.
