b94177e10f ath9k: add stability fixes for long standing hang issues (FS#13, #34, #373, #383)
The radio would stop communicating completely. This issue was easiest to
trigger on AR913x devices, e.g. the TP-Link TL-WR1043ND, but other
hardware was occasionally affected as well.

The most critical issue was a race condition in disabling/enabling IRQs
between the IRQ handler and the IRQ processing tasklet

072937888e mac80211: make it work with 3.18.12+
3.18.12 backported 61ada528dea028331e99e8ceaed87c683ad25de2 ("sched/wait:
Provide infrastructure to deal with nested blocking") from 3.19, causing
the following error on load:

[   13.588000] compat: exports duplicate symbol woken_wake_function (owned by kernel)

Fix this by guarding it with a check for 3.18.11 or earlier instead of
3.19.
