Thanks! Applied and pushed out. I should note, since no one else has,
that ath9k_htc has gotten a huge face lift by now. Unfortunately the
entire new revamp was done through an internal private tree but from
what I gather submission upstream should happen soon.

Does it make much sense then to hack on the driver right now?
Should linux-wireless be CC'ed as well for ath9k_htc patches?

Thanks,

We would be making a submission soon, as soon as a few
internal tests are run.

I would think that holding off work on the public ath9k_htc tree would be good.
Patches are always welcome for the driver after the submission. :)
