clang fails to eliminate some dead code with always-taken branches
when CONFIG_PROFILE_ANNOTATED_BRANCHES is set, leading to a false-positive
warning:

drivers/net/wireless/ath/carl9170/mac.c:522:3: error: variable 'power' is used uninitialized whenever 'if' condition is
      false [-Werror,-Wsometimes-uninitialized]
                BUG_ON(1);
                ^~~~~~~~~

Change both instances of BUG_ON(1) in carl9170 to the simpler BUG()
to avoid the warning.

Heh, I added these "default:" cases back in the day to make gcc
shut-up about "switch is missing cases" warnings. And now I
guess it's clangs time to complain. (-; 

Especially the "default case" in carl9170_rx_untie_data is hilarious.
Since all the possible cases (just 4!) have been addressed and the
"default" is deadcode. I think gcc did not consider the
AR9170_RX_STATUS_MPDU mask in the 
| switch (mac_status & AR9170_RX_STATUS_MPDU) {

statement. However I'll be waiting for the day until the deadcode
elimination warnings will show up.

Anyway,
