White space not needed here.
Better to declare this as:
	struct ar6_softc *ar = (struct ar6_softc *)ar6k_priv(dev);

No curly braces needed.

Curly braces on the wrong line.
Curly braces were not needed.

Just return -EINVAL directly.

             ^   ^

Parentheses not needed.
Just return 0 directly.

Please you tabs to indent on new functions.  If the code is inside an
existing function then be consistent, but if it's a new function then
use tabs.
