 Why does it matter, mac80211 tells the driver to reconfigure it
 anyway. Also, why use the stupid ATH9K_SLOT_TIME_* enums? I think we
 should simply remove those.

In most of the case, mac80211 set as 9us and also initval uses 9us.
The what is the problem of setting 9us as default. If you want to
remove ATH9K_SLOT_TIME_* enums, ath9k should not set slottime till
it got configured.
I don't see a problem with the change aside from the fact that it should not make any difference at all, so I don't really see any point to it.
