atheroswifi spamming syslog

using hrev52097 x86_64

the driver works nice!

syslog

[waddlesplash]

So the "nothing on rxbuf" message comes from ​ath_edma_rxbuf_alloc, and that's called from ​ath_edma_rxfifo_alloc, and that's (probably) being called from ​ath_edma_startrecv; but there's a comment there stating it "probably is a no-op".

But then again, the other "spamming syslog" ticket in which the driver is said to work (#14270) has no messages like this one, so perhaps it is needed in that case.

Fixed in hrev52107.
