ath9k: let sleep be interrupted when unregistering hwrng
There are two deadlock scenarios that need addressing, which cause problems when the computer goes to sleep, the interface is set down, and hwrng_unregister() is called. When the deadlock is hit, sleep is delayed for tens of seconds, causing it to fail. These scenarios are: 1) The hwrng kthread can't be stopped while it's sleeping, because it uses msleep_interruptible() instead of schedule_timeout_interruptible(). The fix is a simple moving to the correct function. At the same time, we should cleanup a common and useless dmesg splat in the same area. 2) A normal user thread can't be interrupted by hwrng_unregister() while it's sleeping, because hwrng_unregister() is called from elsewhere. The solution here is to keep track of which thread is currently reading, and asleep, and signal that thread when it's time to unregister. There's a bit of book keeping required to prevent lifetime issues on current.
