Stop referencing 'features' memory after release_firmware is called.

Fixes this crash:

RIP: 0010:mt7921_check_offload_capability+0x17d
mt7921_pci_probe+0xca/0x4b0
...

Hi Ben,

thx for fixing it. Just few minor comments inline.

I would say we can use a more meaningful name here, something like offload_capa
or similar. Moreover I thin you can move features pointer just in the
if (rel_info->tag == MT7921_FW_TAG_FEATURE) block.
