This patch fixes a embarrassing bug which was introduced by: "[PATCH] ar9170: implement frequency calibration for one-stage/openfw" The phy_data variable initialization has to done outside the for-loop scope. This is because the for-loop uses u32 phy_data variable more like a 4-byte field. But in each run only a single byte is calculated. Therefore phy_data content needs to stay the same for at least 3 more iterations, before the complete set can be uploaded.
