Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Use HW HT capabilites properly

The commit "ath9k: Remove aggregation flags" changed how
nodes were being initialized. Use the HW HT cap bits
to initialize/de-initialize nodes, else we would be
accessing an uninitialized entry during a suspend/resume cycle,
resulting in a panic.
