While not strictly necessary because of Eric's ack, since you continue
to grow this thread that addresses an active bug people are suffering
from, it might be some very useful signaling if you too would provide
your Acked-by, so that Kalle picks this up and people's laptops work
again.

The intent here is ath9k, but in the process it of course fixes other
things too, and I'm quite pleased with the multiple-birds-one-stone
consequence.

No, that kind of band aid doesn't really sit well, especially as
you've proposed struct changes inside hwrng. I'm not going to do that.

As mentioned, v10 is my final submission here. If you'd like to Ack
it, please go ahead. If not, and if as a consequence Kalle doesn't
pick up the patch, perhaps you'll develop this yourself moving forward
and you'll also fix the longstanding problems with hwrng so that I
don't have to. In case it's not clear to you: I'm no longer interested
in any aspect of this discussion, I find the current patch
satisfactory of numerous goals, and I would appreciate this whole
thing being over. I am no longer available to work further on this
patch.

Thanks,
Jason
