RFC 1/2 ath9k: add an extra boolean parameter to ath9k_hw_apply_txpower

In order to unifying regulatory limit handling commit ca2c68cc7bc80fc4504fb420df04cce99c9ee6ec (ath9k_hw: clean up tx power handling) introduced a new helper function 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', and the direct calls of 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower' has been replaced by a call of the helper function.

This caused a change in the behaviour of the 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' function. The purpose of that function is to calculate and store the rate txpower table and the regulatory limit without touching the hardware registers. Before the commit, the 'test' parameter of the function was passed to the 'ah->eep_ops->set_txpower'. Now the calling of the 'set_txpower' function happens indirectly through 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower', so the 'test' argument of the 'set_txpower' is always 'false'.

This patch restores the original behaviour of 'ath9k_hw_set_txpowerlimit' by adding a new argument to 'ath9k_hw_apply_txpower.'

RFC 2/2 ath9k: fix tx power settings for AR9287

The 'ath9k_hw_update_regulatory_maxpower' helper function has been introduced by commit a55f858852e4345d0a31af593c46738ca8614bff (ath9k_hw: Cleanup TX power calculation for AR9287).

Updating of the max_power_level value has been moved into the helper function in that change, however the removed code from 'ath9k_hw_ar9287_set_txpower' has not been replaced with a call of the new helper function.

Due to that missing call, retrieving tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmask is not handled properly. During the calculation of the tx power for 2x2 and 3x3 chainmasks the values are reduced. Those reductions must be compensated during retrieving.

Fix this by adding the missing call of the helper function.

Looks like I got confused between 4K-based cards and AR9287. Thanks for catching this.
