Thanks for all the fixes Journi,   All of these cases seem to be working 
now.   What other cases is software encryption needed?


Before setting nohwcrypt=1,  I was receiving the message in  
wireless-testing/drivers/net/wireless/ath9k/hw.c:2997:                                  
"received PCI FATAL interrupt\n");
