ath9k-htc:respect usb buffer cacheline alignment in ath9k_hif_usb_alloc_rx_urbs

From: Ming Lei <[email protected]>

In ath9k_hif_usb_alloc_rx_urbs, ath9k-htc will pass skb->data into usb hcd and usb hcd will do dma mapping and unmapping to the buffer pointed by skb->data, so we should pass a cache-line aligned address.

This patch replace __dev_alloc_skb with alloc_skb to make skb->data pointed to a cacheline aligned address simply since ath9k-htc does not skb_push on the skb and pass it to mac80211, also use kfree_skb to free the skbs allocated by alloc_skb(we can use kfree_skb safely in hardirq context since skb->destructor is NULL always in the path).
