Subject: [PATCH v2 06/20] ath5k: run NF calibration only every 60 seconds
Date: Wed, 19 May 2010 10:31:10 +0900	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20100519013110.22206.90113.stgit@tt-desk> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20100519012528.22206.77550.stgit@tt-desk>

Since NF calibration interferes with TX and RX and also has been the cause of
other problems (when it's run concurrently with ath5k_reset) we want to run it
less often - every 60 seconds for now.
