but it couldn't connect another host (using ibss for example).
During an analysis I observed that it's transmitting on another

the problem is in channel setting function. So atheros RF2317 not

this patch fixes problem, but only for some of them.
For unknown reason, sometimes after hw scanning, device is not able
to receive frames at high rate. Since plcp health check may request
hw scan to "reset radio", performance problem start to be observable
after update kernel to .35, where plcp check was introduced.

While unloading the driver, the ps_usecount is incremented
before configuring gpio registers in deinit_device.
But it is failed to restore the ps_usecount after that.
The problem is that the chip is forcibly moved to FULL SLEEP
by radio_disable when mac80211 is reporting as idle
though ps_usecount is not zero.
This patch retores ps_usecount properly and ensures that
the chip is always moved to full sleep only if ps usage
count is zero which also helps in debugging deadbeef on
multivif case. And also fixes the following warning.
ath: DMA failed to stop in 10 ms AR_CR=0xdeadbeef AR_DIAG_SW=0xdeadbeef
ath: Could not stop RX, we could be confusing the DMA engine when we

The power detector adc offset calibration has to be done
on 4 minutes interval (longcal * pa_skip_count). But the commit
"ath9k_hw: fix a noise floor calibration related race condition"
makes the PA calibration executed more frequently beased on
nfcal_pending value. Running PAOffset calibration lesser than
longcal interval doesn't help anything and the worse part is that
it causes NF load timeouts and RX deaf conditions.
In a very noisy environment, where the distance b/w AP & station
is ~10 meter and running a downlink udp traffic with frequent
background scan causes "Timeout while waiting for nf to load:
AR_PHY_AGC_CONTROL=0x40d1a" and moves the chip into deaf state.
This issue was originaly reported in Android platform where
the network-manager application does bgscan more frequently
on AR9271 chips. (AR9285 family usb device).

It's safe to move spin lock after pcmcia_enable_device() as we
still hold off IRQ until dev->base_addr is 0 and driver will
not proceed with interrupts when is not ready.

This is an attempt to fix a long standing open bug:
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1334
The interrupt handler checks for INTA being -1, apparently that means that the
hardware is gone. But the interrupt handler defers actual interrupt processing
to a tasklet. By the time the tasklet is run and checks INTA again, the
hardware might be gone and INTA be -1, which confuses the driver because all
event bits are set.
The patch applies to 2.6.37.
