"ath9k: Fix softlockup in AR9485" with commit id
64bc1239c790e051ff677e023435d770d2ffa174 fixed the reported
issue, yet its better to avoid the possible infinite loop
in ar9003_get_pll_sqsum_dvc by having a timeout as suggested
by ath9k maintainers.

Based on my testing PLL's locking measurement is done in
~200us (2 iterations).

How did you come up with 100 as max limit to break the loop?
i assumed its a sufficient arbitrary max value to confirm that the PLL
locking measurement does not happens. Based on my quite a few of
tests(idle associated, with traffic)PLL immediately locksup in 200us (2
iterations). As per your suggestion i will quickly check with the
System's team if we can give a proper value, rather than 100 * 100 us as
timeout. thanks for reviewing it!
