ath6kl: don't power down hardware when interface is down

Jouni reported that my patch "ath6kl: power down hardware when interface
is down" caused a regression on his x86 boxes and scan didn't work anymore.
I was able to reproduce the problem by disabling all debug messages.

So there has to be a race condition somewhere in the code and disable the
functionality until the race is fixed. Now hardware is powered from the
point where module is loaded until it's removed.

ath6kl: Fix lockdep warning

The following is the lockdep warning which detects possible
deadlock condition with the way ar->lock and ar->list_lock
are being used.

(&(&ar->lock)->rlock){+.-...}, at: [<ffffffffa0492d13>] ath6kl_indicate_tx_activity+0x83/0x110 [ath6kl]
but this lock took another, SOFTIRQ-unsafe lock in the past:
(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock){+.+...}

and interrupts could create inverse lock ordering between them.

other info that might help us debug this:
Possible interrupt unsafe locking scenario:

CPU0 CPU1
---- ----
lock(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock);
local_irq_disable();
lock(&(&ar->lock)->rlock);
lock(&(&ar->list_lock)->rlock);
<Interrupt>
lock(&(&ar->lock)->rlock);

*** DEADLOCK ***

softirqs have to be disabled when acquiring ar->list_lock to avoid
the above deadlock condition. When the above warning printed the
interface is still up and running without issue.

ath6kl: implement ath6kl_cfg80211_suspend()

This is in preparation for cutpower suspend feature. HIF layer makes
the decision based on information provided by cfg80211 and what hardware
actually supports. Then it calls ath6kl_cfg80211_suspend() to enable
the chosen mode.

Functionality should be the same, this is just preparation for
more suspend modes (cutpower and wow).

ath6kl: add aborted parameter to ath6kl_cfg80211_scan_complete_event()

Currently it takes an error code as status, but what we really want to
tell is if the scan was aborted or not.

Also fix a bug where we were comparing firmware scan status values
with kernel error codes, which is obviously wrong. This meant
that ath6kl didn't detect when firmware informed about failed scans. I
doubt that this fix doesn't make any difference in practise but it
still needs to be fixed. This is fixed by adding an enum for the success
status code and checking for that.

ath6kl: power down hardware when interface is down

The benefit from this is that user space can control hardware's power state
by putting interface up and down. This is handy if firmware gets to some
weird state.

The downside will be that putting interface up takes a bit longer,
I was measuring ~500 ms during interface up.
