ath5k: fixing retries in ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc
The rate control algorithm, default is Minstrel for ath5k, determines the number of retries to use for each rate. However, there exists in ath5k_hw_setup_4word_tx_desc (which is called for AR5212 like devices) a set number of retries defined by AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES. The set number of tries is added to the tx_tries0 variable setup by the rate control algorithm. This changes the number of retries the rate control algorithm considers necessary. By removing the AR5K_TUNE_HWTXTRIES from the retry calculation the rate control algorithm is given control over the number of retries.
