[PATCH] tests: query carrier before data test

[Johannes Berg]

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg at intel.com>

The kernel has an asynchronous work to enable TX, which
hasn't always run by the time we get to TX tests. Do a
sysfs read from the carrier file before TX, on newer
kernels this synchronises the needed state.
