Felix Fietkau 5903f4a167 mac80211: Improve ath5k/ar71xx PCI bug WAR
It has been confirmed by Atheros that this PCI bug affects the RX side only,
so we can keep the 128B DMA size for TX.

With this change we can double the thruput of ath5k from 15Mps to 30Mbps.

We have been using this patch since more than 6 month in a production
environment without problems and a significant performance improvement.

It has also been said to fix HW encryption:

Felix Fietkau d5a641bcdf mac80211: fix ath5k dma size workaround for ar71xx Atheros legacy hardware does not perform well on ar71xx unless both TXCFG and RXCFG are forced to 4 bytes. The previous patch only changed RXCFG. The OpenWrt Madwifi HAL also sets both RXCFG and TXCFG
