Subject: [PATCH] ath9k_hw: Fix fast clock support for AR9280 v2.0+

To enable fast clock support on 5GHz for AR9280 v2.0+ chips,
mac version alone is not sufficient. It also depends on eeprom
values.

No, it doesn't. The check is bogus, even though it's present in the
internal atheros codebase. All AR9280 can do fastclock even though on
some the EEPROM flag is disabled.
