Subject: [PATCH 2/5] ath9k_htc: Handle pending URBs properly
Date: Tue, 28 Dec 2010 13:41:51 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19737.39879.95235.950189@gargle.gargle.HOWL> (raw)

From: Sujith Manoharan <Sujith.Manoharan@atheros.com>

When doing a channel change, the pending URBs have to be killed
properly on calling htc_stop().

This fixes the probe response timeout seen when sending UDP traffic at
a high rate and running background scan at the same time.
