ath6kl_usb_submit_ctrl_in() did not take into account the situation where
the length of the data read from the device is not equal to the len, and
such missing judgments will result in subsequent code using incorrect data.

usb_control_msg_recv() handles the abnormal length of the returned data,
so using it directly can fix this warning.

By removing this call, there is now only one call left to
ath6kl_usb_submit_ctrl_in(), so that probably can also be unwrapped in a
second patch in this series, right?

As was pointed out, this is a very odd indentation style.
