I think I have narrowed down some problems I see when I create

It appears that the ath9k NIC does not transport AMPDUs properly,
and after a few seconds, it's backlog is exhausted and the queues
are stopped in ath_tx_start.
ath9k currently looks up the sta by hw and not by vif on tx completion.
That completely breaks aggregation in such a setup. Unfortunately I
don't know an easy way to fix this yet.
This will be fixed by my sw aggregation rewrite, but I don't know when
I'll get that completed yet.
If you have any more details on this, please let me know. I'm going to
attempt to fix it...I certainly have a good test case :)
