ath9k: remove some bogus error handling code
If "axq_qnum >= ARRAY_SIZE(sc->tx.txq)", then the call to ath9k_hw_releasetxqueue() would read beyond the end of the ah->txq[] array and possibly corrupt memory. Fortunately, ath9k_hw_setuptxqueue() doesn't return high values of "axq_qnum" and this code can be removed. Signed-off-by: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@oracle.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
