You are still using the old version of ath6kl from staging. But it seems
that there's a problem with the SDIO bus, I just don't know what as I
have forgotten almost everything from the staging version.

If you want to try the "new" ath6kl you need to install compat-wireless
on your device. But I don't know if that will work any better.
