WoW has to be tested quite a bit for it to be fully operational and it's largely
affected by the platform/chip quirks. Our internal test cycles cover various aspects
of WoW to make sure it doesn't affect normal usage and we never covered
the AR9002 family. Keeping untested, possibly incomplete code is not really useful...

Stanislaw raised a concern about a potential RH customer - if that happens, the patch
can be reverted (though, AR9462 would be a much better choice).
