ath9k: fix a DMA related race condition on reset
When ath_drain_all_txq fails to stop DMA, it issues a hw reset. This reset
happens at a very problematic point in time, when the hardware rx path has
not been stopped yet. This could lead to memory corruption, hardware hangs
or other issues.
To fix these issues, simply remove the reset entirely and check the tx DMA
stop status to prevent problems with fast channel changes.
