Sorry, I meant this one:

ath9k: fix double-free bug on beacon generate failure
When the next beacon is sent, the ath_buf from the previous run is reused.
If getting a new beacon from mac80211 fails, bf->bf_mpdu is not reset, yet
the skb is freed, leading to a double-free on the next beacon tx attempt,
resulting in a system crash.

I did not have this one applied, and it would explain at least one
crash that I've seen.
I'll apply it (and the other you mentioned) now.
Thanks!
