Subject: [PATCH] ath10k: Ensure peer_map references are cleaned up.

While debugging OS crashes due to firmware crashes, I enabled
kasan, and it noticed that peer objects were being used-after-freed.

Looks like there are two places we could be leaving stale references
in the peer-map, so clean that up.
