You also need this change in hw.{c,h} for ath9k not to bail out with "ath: 
Hardware device ID 0x0033 not supported":

With the above two patches applied, I get the following:

iw dev wlan0 scan                                                                                                                                                                                                          
command failed: Device or resource busy (-16)

iw phy0 info shows the 5GHz band has being listed

iw dev wlan0 survey dump seems to correctly list the activity on the 5Ghz 
channels (it's updated from one call to another)

if I start the interface in AP mode, my laptop does not see it's beacon, I 
have not had a chance yet to use a monitor interface.

Let me know if you want me to give you more debug.

Thank you very much!
