I'd like to work on allowing users to configure antenna diversity,
starting with ath5k.

Before I start on this, I wanted to see if anyone else was
actively pursuing it.

Thanks,
Ben

someone pointed you to my patches. i have been using them since month locally 
and i think the are fine as a general API, but there has been some reluctance 
to get them merged. i still don't really get why. i will fix the one remaining 
issue i know of (don't allow antenna setting when if up) rebase them and 
bother luis again, soon... :) if you have any feedback or ideas for 
improvement, please let me know.

I'm afraid I took the easy way and just used debugfs to read/set the values.

We haven't done any actual testing of this feature with traffic, but setting/reading
the values seems to work fine.

Thanks,
Ben
