ath9k_hw: do not apply the 2.4 ghz ack timeout workaround to cts
It is only used to workaround interoperability issues related to longer delays in receiving the block ack, so it is not necessary to apply it to the CTS exchange. Should improve throughput slightly, especially when there are lots of retransmissions. Signed-off-by: Felix Fietkau <nbd@openwrt.org> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
