ath9k: Add workaround to recover from failed channel changes
It looks like channel change may fail in some cases and end up leaving
the hardware in state where it cannot transmit any frames. Add a
workaround to recover from this state if we detect that wiphy
selection is failing due to wiphys not leaving PAUSING state.
