OK but either we remove the whole thing (ath5k_hw_set_sleep_cloc also,
it's not being called anywhere else) or go the other way and leave it
there with a comment or a debugfs/modparam. I believe having it as a
debugfs/modparam option is better, after all it worked so far for most
cards, we didn't had any bug reports related to 32KHz operation (at
least I don't remember any).
