Remove static keyword and export ath9k_hw_setslottime(),
ath9k_hw_set_ack_timeout() and ath9k_hw_set_cts_timeout() in hw.h. These
methods will be used in dynamic ack timeout estimation

Dear Lorenzo:
Thank you your patch!But I want to know where can I get the RTS/CTS and ACK in
MAC80211 or ATH9K after adopting this change,using the function
ieee80211_rx_h_ctrl(/net/mac80211/rx.c)?
Any reply will be much appreciated!!

I think this is broken, since it doesn't allow you to re-enable dynack
through the same way as it was disabled.
I would recommend adding an 'auto' value for coverage class.

Ok. Could we use 255 as 'auto' value? Did you mean something else?
According to the standard maximum value for coverage class is 31, isn't it?
