The current way of managing beaconing in ad-hoc
mode has a subtle race - the beacon obtained from mac80211
is freed in the SWBA handler rather than the TX
completion routine. But transmission of beacons goes
through the normal SKB queue maintained in hif_usb,
leading to a situation where __skb_dequeue() in the TX
completion handler goes kaput.
Fix this by simply getting a beacon from mac80211 for
every SWBA and free it in its completion routine.

When the USB device has been unplugged, there is
no point in trying to send commands to the target.
Fix this by denying all WMI commands in such a case.

This patch fixes a bunch of endian issues that
were exposed by sparse. It's a miracle that the driver
worked at all till now.
The Lord be praised.

Stop/restart TX queues when the internal SKB
queue is full. This helps handle TX better
under heavy load.

The calculation of RX filter is fairly different
between ath9k and ath9k_htc, trying to make this
common between the two drivers would result in code churn.
While at it, remove the handling of PSPOLL filter,
it can be added when(if) AP support is added to ath9k_htc.
