Yeah, and that's why I've taken care to not change anything that would
affect iwlwifi although I'd like to :) But this would make it possible
to have ath9k not use its own sequence numbers if it doesn't drop frames
(and iwlwifi doesn't really drop frames any more anyway, so here's to
hoping you can at some point use the mac80211 provided sequence numbers
too)
