I didn't know that the bug was severe and I applied the patch to
ath-next, which means it will go to v5.5 which is bad. (This is why I
always ask people to clearly describe the bug in the commit log!)

In theory I could also push it to v5.4 but I just don't want to deal
with the possible conflicts coming from duplicate commits.
