ath9k_hw: Fix and complete force bias for AR5416
Force bias is a fix for usage of AR5416 radios on the 2.4 GHz band for orientation sensitivity. This was only partially implemented with the ath9k_hw_decrease_chain_power() but first -- this was being called for all chipsets which is not correct and second -- it was missing the actual orientation code. We now ensure to only enable force bias only for AR5416 and BUG_ON() on other chipsets. Although ath9k_hw_decrease_chain_power() was enabled for newer chipsets I suspect that it never ran unless the EEPROM had ATH9K_ANT_FIXED_A or ATH9K_ANT_FIXED_B for antenna diversity.
