Grabbing an ath5k_buf then dropping the lock is racy because the
referenced descriptor can be obtained in another thread and released
before the buffer is handed to the hardware. Likewise, manipulating
sc->rxlink without the lock can lead to having multiple self-linked
hardware descriptors.

This patch simplifies the code used to detect when the
self-linked DMA buffer is still in use by hardware, by
checking the hardware's rxdp register instead of looking
at the software buffer list.

This patch corrects a few errors in the initvals tables to match those
in the HAL tables. Namely, remove a couple of repetitions, fix some
turbo mode errors, and correct a register for the CCK rate power table.

ath9k_hw_getisr() doesn't appear to set anything in the status mask for
PCI FATAL or PERR interrupts (AR_INTR_SYNC_HOST1_FATAL/PERR), which
the open-source HAL seems to do. This means that the card isn't reset
after these interrupts.
This patch seems to fix a problem where the wireless drops out with an
"ath9k: received PCI FATAL interrupt" in dmesg after some time; the
hardware is an AR5416 in an ASUS WL-500W running 2.6.28.7 (OpenWRT) and
compat-wireless 2009-03-31.
