carl9170: fix -EINVAL bailout during init with !CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH

Sean reported that as of 3.7, his AR9170 device no longer works
because the driver fails during initialization. He noted this
is due to:
"In carl9170/fw.c, ar->hw->wiphy is tagged with
NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT support if the firmware has Content
after Beacon Queuing. This is both in interface_modes and the
only iface_combinations entry.

If CONFIG_MAC80211_MESH is not set, ieee80211_register_hw
removes NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT from interface_modes, but
not iface_combinations.

wiphy_register then checks to see if every interface type in
every interface combination is in interface_modes.
NL80211_IFTYPE_MESH_POINT was removed, so you get a WARN_ON
warning and it returns -EINVAL, giving up."

Unfortunately, the iface_combination (types) feature bitmap
in ieee80211_iface_limit is part of a const member in the
ieee80211_iface_combination struct. Hence, the MESH_POINT
feature flag can't be masked by wiphy_register in the
same way as interface_modes in ieee80211_register_hw.
