ath5k: Cleanups v2 + add kerneldoc on all hw functions

No functional changes

Add kernel doc for all ath5k_hw_* functions and strcucts. Also do some cleanup,
rename ath5k_hw_init_beacon to ath5k_hw_init_beacon_timers, remove an unused
variable from ath5k_hw_pcu_init and a few obsolete macros, mostly related to XR.

  * There is also a distinction between "static" and "dynamic" turbo modes:
  *
  * - Static: is the dumb version: devices set to this mode stick to it until
  *     the mode is turned off.

  * - Dynamic: is the intelligent version, the network decides itself if it

+ * The channel bonding seems to be driver specific though.
+ *
+ * In addition to TURBO modes we also have the following features for even
+ * greater speed-up:
  *
  * - Bursting: allows multiple frames to be sent at once, rather than pausing
  *     after each frame. Bursting is a standards-compliant feature that can be
  *     used with any Access Point.
+ *
  * - Fast frames: increases the amount of information that can be sent per
  *     frame, also resulting in a reduction of transmission overhead. It is a
  *     proprietary feature that needs to be supported by the Access Point.
+ *
  * - Compression: data frames are compressed in real time using a Lempel Ziv
  *     algorithm. This is done transparently. Once this feature is enabled,
  *     compression and decompression takes place inside the chipset, without
  *     putting additional load on the host CPU.

+ * for 5GHz). Antenna 1 (MAIN) should be omnidirectional, 2 (AUX)
+ * omnidirectional or sectorial and antennas 3-14 sectorial (or directional).
+ *
+ * We can have a single antenna for RX and multiple antennas for TX.

+ * (all are bits of STA_ID1 register):
+ *
+ * AR5K_STA_ID1_DEFAULT_ANTENNA -> When 0 is set as the TX antenna on TX
+ * control descriptor, use the default antenna to transmit or else use the last

+ * one on the TX descriptor.
+ *
+ * AR5K_STA_ID1_SELFGEN_DEF_ANT -> Use default antenna for self generated frames
+ * (ACKs etc), or else use current antenna (the one we just used for TX).
+ *
+ * Using the above we support the following scenarios:
+ *
+ * AR5K_ANTMODE_DEFAULT -> Hw handles antenna diversity etc automatically
+ *
+ * AR5K_ANTMODE_FIXED_A	-> Only antenna A (MAIN) is present
