ath9k: disable MIB interrupts to fix interrupt storm

Enabling the MIB interrupts has proven to cause an
interrupt storm after 7 hours of run. We will make use of the
MIB interrupt once we have ANI supported added so for now
to cure this we disable the interrupt.

The interrupt storm can be seen as follows after 7 hours of run
as reported by  Steven Noonan <steven@uplinklabs.net>:

18:28:38          sum   1106.00
18:28:39          sum   1037.62
18:28:40          sum   1069.00
18:28:41          sum   1167.00
18:28:42          sum   1155.00
18:28:43          sum   1339.00
18:28:44          sum  18355.00
18:28:45          sum  17845.45
18:28:46          sum  15285.00
18:28:47          sum  17511.00
18:28:48          sum  17568.69
18:28:49          sum  17704.04
18:28:50          sum  18566.67
18:28:51          sum  18913.13

at 18:28:44 the MIB interrupt kicked off and caused huge
latency which can be seen even on a video he submitted:
