    ath9k: Fix kernel panic in AR2427 in AP mode · b25bfda3

    don't do aggregation related stuff for 'AP mode client power save
    handling' if aggregation is not enabled in the driver, otherwise it
    will lead to panic because those data structures won't be never
    intialized in 'ath_tx_node_init' if aggregation is disabled
