[Impact]
Realtek 8723be's ant_sel parameter stops working since 4.15.0-33.36.

[Fix]
The commit that causes the regression works in mainline, so there are
some functional dependencies are not in 4.15.

Finding those dependencies can be hard since I don't have the hardware
to test with, also pulling new commits may cause new regression. So the
safest way to deal with this bug is to simply revert the regression
commit.

[Test]
User confirmed reverting the commit can fix the issue.

[Regression Potential]
Low. Realtek 8723be works without this commit.
