Actually, if the code was broken and nobody noticed, do we need it at
all?  ar9170_usb_tx_urb_complete() is an empty function.

Suppose we need it, then maybe we could put some debug code there?  I
think that function has a poor name, it should be something with "cmd",
like ar9170_usb_tx_urb_complete_cmd().

By the way, I think such fixes belong to stable.
