This reverts commit 2bbcaaee1fcbd83272e29f31e2bb7e70d8c49e05 ("ath9k: Fix general protection fault
in ath9k_hif_usb_rx_cb") because the driver gets stuck like this:

I couldn't find any fix for this, so here is the patch which reverts the
offending commit. I have tested it with 5.8.0-rc3 and with 5.7.4.

Feel free to change the commit message if it is necessary or appropriate, I am
just a user affected by this bug.
