Hi Sangwook,

BTW, ath6kl-cleanup.git is not updated anymore. Instead there's now
ath6kl.git which follows wireless-testing. You can find it from
git.kernel.org (when it's up again) or from github.

Hmm, I'm not sure if I have hw 2.0. I try to find one from my "stash" :)

0x40 is ATH6KL_DBG_HTC_RECV. I guess the debug prints slow down the
execution and papers over the bug. At least I can't think of any other
explonation right now.

Before I'm able to find a hw 2.0 device, can you try to debug this more?
When scanning fails can check if ath6kldev_intr_bh_handler() is called
or not? When scanning fails it usually happens because irqs are failing.

Can you share any details about your setup? From linaro.org I assume you
are using an arm board of some sort ;)
