From: Senthil Balasubramanian <senthilkumar@xxxxxxxxxxx> The patch: commit 293dc5dfdbcc16cde06e40a688394cc8ab083e48 Author: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@xxxxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Jun 19 12:17:48 2009 +0200 ath9k: remove ath_rx_ps_back_to_sleep helper This helper only clears the SC_OP_WAIT_FOR_{BEACON,CAB} flags. Remove it and clear these flags directly in the approptiate places instead. Changes-licensed-under: ISC Signed-off-by: Gabor Juhos <juhosg@xxxxxxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> introduced a regression which forgot to lift the beacon flag after we received all broadcast and multicast data. This meant we never went to sleep consuming about ~650mW on idle. This pretty much broke power save completely. This patch has fixes for stable kernels [2.6.32+].
