rt2x00: Only configure hardware when radio is enabled
Some hardware configuration registers such as antenna and channel configuration can only be written when the radio is enabled. Previously, we didn't consider this, so some configuration items could be set inconsistently after reenabling the radio. This patch changes the config() handler to only reprogram the hardware when the radio is enabled. Configuration changes that are made while the radio is off are postponed until the radio is switched back on. We also leave the radio turned off during initialization and only enable it when requested by mac80211. This allows us to get rid of the DIRTY_CONFIG flag, because the device is now guaranteed to be completely initialized when brought up by mac80211.
