Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Fix a dma warning/memory leak

From: Mohammed Shafi Shajakhan <[email protected]>

proper dma_unmapping and freeing of skb's has to be done in the rx
cleanup for EDMA chipsets when the device is unloaded and this also
seems to address the following warning which shows up occasionally when
the device is unloaded
