+ ath9k_hw: do not lower ANI setting below default on AR913x
+
+ When the amount of noise fluctuates strongly, low immunity settings
+ can sometimes disrupt signal detection on AR913x chips. When that
+ happens, no OFDM/CCK errors are reported anymore, and ANI tunes the
+ radio to the lowest immunity settings.
+ Usually rx/tx fails as well in that case.
+
+ To fix this, keep noise immunity settings at or above ANI default level,
+ which will keep radio parameters at or above INI values.
