No, ath9k treats them the same, but if the current, active context is
different from the incoming frame's assigned context, then it is added
to a software queue for deferred transmission. But, before a switch
to the next context can happen, mac80211 proceeds to tear down the
BSS/stations etc. and the VIF/context is also removed.
