ath9k: content DMA start / stop through the PCU lock
This helps align resets / RX enable & disable / TX stop / start.
Locking around the PCU is important to ensure the hardware doesn't
get stale data when working with DMA'able data.
This is part of a series of patches which fix stopping
TX DMA completley when requested on the driver.
