ath5k: rework beacon configuration
Using the enable_beacon flag allows some simplifications and fixes some corner cases in beacon handling. This change adds a state variable for beaconing in ath5k_beacon_config and handles both enabling and disabling, thus eliminating the need for ath5k_beacon_disable. We also now configure the beacon when any of the beacon parameters change, so ath5k_beacon_reconfig is no longer needed (its mmiowb gets moved to ath5k_beacon_config). Finally, by locking around the whole config function, we don't need to worry about clearing the interrupt mask register before installing the new mask. The upshot is this correctly disables beaconing when the interfaces are taken down, it fixes a potential restarting of beaconing when ath5k_reset() is called, and ensures that updates to the beacon interval take effect immediately.
