Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Enable WDS for the ath9k

As requested, I'm breaking up my previous patch.

This patch enables WDS for the ath9k driver.

For WDS to fully work, patches to mac80211 are also needed
(submitted separately).

If you want to add verbose messages that should not
be part of the commit log entry add them here after
the three dashes ("---").
