Log:
  [ath] fix "doing stuff before wakeup" warning; add comments for ACK/CTS 
handling during DFS/PASSIVE channels
  
  * Although the hardware is awake, the power state handling doesn't think so.
    So just explicitly wake it up early in setup so ath_hal calls don't 
complain.
  
  * We shouldn't be transmitting or ACKing frames during DFS CAC or on passive
    channels before we hear a beacon.  So, start laying down comments in the
    places where this work has to be done.
  
  Note:
  
  * The main bit missing from finishing this particular bit of work is a state
    call to transition a VAP from passive to non-passive when a beacon is heard.
    CAC is easy, it's an interface state.  So, I'll go and add a method to 
control
    that soon.
