The hardware needs a reset to recover from full sleep. Issue this reset
directly in the ath9k_config call that turns off idle, otherwise tx
remains dead until the first channel change after the idle state change

This doesn't seem to work...
Since IDLE is broken currently, the HW never enters FULL_SLEEP mode and
reset_channel will always be zero, and a chip reset will be done only via
IEEE80211_CONF_CHANGE_CHANNEL.

Consider this preparation for fixing idle mode.
