2.6.27-rc2: suspend regression on EeePC

[Alan Jenkins]

I'm very pleased to see ath5k support for my EeePC (AR2425) in 
2.6.27-rc2.  That said, there seems to be a regression with suspend to 
ram.  This is relative to the version I tested from Nicks 
compat-wireless-2008-07-03-ath5k snapshot.

The driver doesn't blow up; it just doesn't behave as expected.  This 
might be a generic issue; it might even be a bad interaction with 
eeepc-laptop being moved to rfkill support.  But I'm asking you guys 
about this first :-).

Expected behaviour (as seen previously):
After resume, a scan is performed automatically.  Unpriviledged users 
can run "iwlist ath0 scan" to see the results.  NetworkManager (0.6.6) 
presumably picks up the scan results, and reconnects without user 
intervention.

Actual behaviour:
After resume, no scan is performed.  Unpriviledged users running "iwlist 
ath0 scan" are told "no results".  It is necessary to run "iwlist ath0 
scan" *as root*; only then will NetworkManager reconnect.

Thanks
