Here's a slew of sparse warning fixes for all Atheros wireless drivers.
These have been itching me for a while now. I ask all patch submitters
and driver maintainers to please run their patches with these two tests:

make C=1 M=drivers/net/wireless/ath/

And then if all is happy try:

make C=2 CF="-D__CHECK_ENDIAN__" M=drivers/net/wireless/ath/

Why not follow a suggestion that Johannes made to me? Add the line

ccflags-y += -D__CHECK_ENDIAN__

To the bottom of the make file(s). That way they only need one run. Then enforce the rule by not ACKing any patches with too many of the endian warnings, and do not allow any of the others.
