When the chip is really stuck, does 'reg' (at 'return false') change
over time? If I add a second requirement that ath9k_hw_check_alive()
must fail three times in a row (in different invocations of
ath9k_tasklet()) before we reset the chip the ap seems fine. I
sometimes get several of these reg = 0x01702400 every second but only
one or at the max two in a row.

Under load I sometimes see some reg = 0x00f02400 as well. I also see
an occasional reset now and then (about once a minute) that must be
caused by something else.

Any insight into what these reg values mean? Do you think they can
safely be ignored as per above?
