This is the same fix as commit 841051602e3fa18ea468fe5a177aa92b6eb44b56 Author: Matteo Croce <technoboy85@xxxxxxxxx> Date: Fri Dec 3 02:25:08 2010 +0100 The ath9k driver subtracts 3 dBm to the txpower as with two radios the signal power is doubled. The resulting value is assigned in an u16 which overflows and makes the card work at full power. in two more places. I grepped the ath tree and didn't find any others.
