ath: add common ath_rxbuf_alloc() and make ath9k use it
Turns out ath5k and ath9k can share the same helper to
allocates RX skbs. We allocate skbs aligned to the cache line
size. This requirement seems to have come from AR5210; when
this was not done it seems sometimes we'd get bogus data. I'm
also told it may have been a performance enhancement
consideration. In the end I can't be sure we can remove this
on new hardware so just keep this and start sharing it through
ath.ko.
Make ath9k start using this, ath5k is next.
