Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: remove unused ath5k_eeprom_info::ee_antenna

clang-struct [1] found that ee_antenna in struct ath5k_eeprom_info is
unused. The commit 1048643ea94d ("ath5k: Clean up eeprom
parsing and add missing calibration data") added it, but did not use it
in any way. Neither, there is a later user.

So remove that unused member.

clang-struct looks really nice, especially if it can also find unused
structures. What about unused defines or enums, any chance to find those
in the future? :)

It can...

All of that is IMO possible (I'm not completely sure about macros,
despite clang ASTs provide a lot of info. Incl. info about them and
their expansion).

It's all limited only by man-force: me.

Too bad, I wish that there would be a tool for that. I suspect wireless
drivers have unused defines and enums, it would be nice to clean up
that.

Yeah, I guessed that. Thanks for making this tool available, hopefully
more people start using it.
