This ports the ath9k rfkill code to the new API offered by
cfg80211 and thus removes a lot of useless stuff.

unload disappears." -- Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan <vasanth@atheros.com>

This change creates a new module, ath.ko, which includes code that can
be shared between ath5k, ath9k and ar9170. For now, extract most of the ath9k
regulatory code so it can also be used in ath5k.

CONFIG_ATH9K=y results in build issues if CONFIG_RFKILL=m since ath9k
does not depend on rfkill in kconfig (i.e., CONFIG_RFKILL is used to
select whether to enable rfkill in ath9k), but uses its functions if
rfkill is enabled. Enforce ath9k to be build as a module if
CONFIG_RFKILL=m to avoid this invalid configuration.

ath9k uses LED classdev functions, so it needs to either select or depend
on them.  This patch uses the same selects that ath5k uses...
