I would suggest to initialise the power_level as AR5K_TUNE_MAX_TXPOWER
in base.c funktion ath5k_init(struct ieee80211_hw *hw)

      /* init tx_power setting to maximum */
      ah->ah_txpower.txp_user_pwr = AR5K_TUNE_MAX_TXPOWER;

that would simplify the readability form above into:
	ret = ath5k_hw_txpower(ah, channel, ah->power_level)

What do you think ?
