Something is broken in the xmit path, definitely.

Ok, so here's a question:  In the ath_tx_complete method,
the pending_frames counter is only decremented if txq == c->tx.txq_map[q].

Maybe it should always be decremented?

What kinds of things could cause txq to not equal the txq-map[q]?

I put in debugging code to check for that...and I can still reproduce
the hang without ever failing the txq == ct->tx.txq_map[q]
test..so problem is elsewhere it seems...
