Ok, so if you have a machine gun that can go off at any time and is
impossible to stop you don't think it makes a difference where it's
pointed? ;) Just kidding, and call me superstitious, but I would feel
much better knowing ath9k is pointing that half-broken dma engine at
it's own data only, at least until it's 100% stable.
