We have few calls for il_set_tx_power(), on some cases we
check return on some not. That correct as setting tx power
can be deferred internally if not possible at the moment.

This is not good change. We do not check return value of
il_commit_rxon(), except when creating interface. So this change might
broke creating interface, what worked otherwise when il_set_tx_power()
returned error.
