what?

the "Hamming weight/Population count" returns the
number of symbols that are different from the zero-symbol.

e.g.: The Hamming weight of 0x800000000000000000000000000000000
is just "1".

Furthermore, if tx_chainmask contains now more than just the available
tx_chains, then they can always mask the hweight* input with: 
AR9300_ANT_CHAIN_MASK (for 3x3) or
AR9300_ANT_COMMON_MASK (for future 4x4)
