[PATCH 2/5] ath6kl: Replace spin_lock_irqsave with spin_lock_bh

[Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan]

It is not necessary to use spinlock primitive to
protect data which is accessed in hard irq context as
nothing is running in hard irq with this driver. The
spinlock primitive meant to protect data in softirq
context is more appropriate.

[PATCH 3/5] ath6kl: Claim sdio function only at appropriate places

[Vasanthakumar Thiagarajan]

There are places where tx_complete callbacks are called with
claiming the sdio function. This is wrong. Claim the sdio function
only when doing actual sdio read/write.

There is only one bounce buffer (ar_sdio->dma_buffer) which is used
for both read and write without any protection. Fix this race by
allocating bounce buffer every time when it is needed.

As I have never seen any race in bounce buffer practically during my testing,
this patch can be dropped instead of making the code complex for no reason.

Heh, we got lucky again. I had applied the patches but forgot to push
them to github. So I was able to drop patches 4 and 5.
