b43: fill ctl1 word on all newer PHYs, fix PHY errors
This fixes PHY transmission errors reported on some LP-PHY and HT-PHY cards. For LP-PHY they were quite rare and not really noticable. On HT-PHY they were critical, OFDM rates were not available at all. Signed-off-by: Rafał Miłecki <zajec5@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
