[PATCH 2/2] staging: r8712u: Fix regression caused by commit 8c213fa

[Larry Finger]

In commit 8c213fa, the command to release the firmware was placed
in the wrong routine. With NetworkManager, problems were rare, but
when using wicd as the network control, there is a problem as shown
in https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/27996#comment89833.
