ath9k: ath9k_hw_init_macaddr should not overwrite valid MAC addresses
Currently setting the MAC address via ath9k_platform_data works only due
to the order in which init.c sets common->macaddr, which is done after
ath9k_hw_init_macaddr was executed. It would be better if the latter
was independent of the order in which it's being called.
