Subject: ath9k: Enable TIM timer interrupt only when needed.

From: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@atheros.com>

commit 3f7c5c10e9dc6bf90179eb9f7c06151d508fb324 upstream.

The TIM timer interrupt is enabled even before the ACK of nullqos
is received which is unnecessary.

Also clean up the CONF_PS part of config callback properly for
better readability.
