ath9k: validate rx antenna settings
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Many chips are not able to deal with non-consecutive rx antenna selections
and respond with calibration errors, reset errors, etc.
When an antenna is selected as a tx antenna, also flag it for rx to avoid
chip issues.
