Actually in my trace I didn't see it resetting on its own. The only
reads with _CAL == 0 happen right after a write that clears it.
(See attached from grep "^[RW].*AGCCTL"). It would be nice if my
mmio trace had timing info...
On the other hand, it must happen or else ath5k_hw_reset would never
work on the 5424.

Good to know. I guess calibration timeouts could also be symptomatic of
general problems as well. Incidentally, in my current session I've
disabled G mode from the capabilities set. All is not well though, I'll
get a run of:
ath0: invalid Michael MIC in data frame from 00:1a:70:da:a9:cb
ath0: invalid Michael MIC in data frame from 00:1a:70:da:a9:cb
ath0: invalid Michael MIC in data frame from 00:1a:70:da:a9:cb
ath0: deauthenticate(reason=14)
(then it reassociates)

Sounds plausible, though I didn't have a lot of success bumping up the
timeout there. But then, I have no idea what I'm doing so I'll test any
patches :)
