Subject: [PATCH 3.14] ath9k: fix ps-poll responses under a-mpdu sessions
Date: Sat, 22 Feb 2014 13:48:19 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1393073299-4831-1-git-send-email-nbd@openwrt.org> (raw)

When passing tx frames to the U-APSD queue for powersave poll responses,
the ath_atx_tid pointer needs to be passed to ath_tx_setup_buffer for
proper sequence number accounting.

This fixes high latency and connection stability issues with ath9k
running as AP and a few kinds of mobile phones as client, when PS-Poll
is heavily used
