In my setups, ath9k's debugfs files are most of the time much more
useful than the messages generated by enabling CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG along
with the right debug flags.
Since CONFIG_ATH_DEBUG comes with a noticeable overhead on embedded
systems, this patch makes it possible to use the debugfs files without
that option.

- Say Y, if you need ath9k to display debug messages.
- Pass the debug mask as a module parameter:
-
- modprobe ath9k debug=0x00000200

- Look in ath9k/debug.h for possible debug masks
+ Also required for changing debug message flags at run time.
