Ah, now I understand. So this patch broke it:

    ath6kl: read firmware start address from hardware

    It's actually possible to read the firmware start address from hardware,
    that way there's no need to hardcode the address in hardware.


So the firmware start address detections doesn't actually work with hw
2.0, too bad.

Actually I would like to fix this a bit differently, can you please try
the attached patch? Compile tested only. If it works, please send me a
Tested-by tag.

BTW, do you still need to enable debug logs to get hw2.0 working properly?

Subject: [PATCH] ath6kl: fix firmware start address for ar6003 hw2.0

Sangwook found out that commit 639d0b89 ("ath6kl: read firmware start
address from hardware") broke firmware boot on ar6003 hw2.0 as it seems
it's not posible to automatically query the address from hardware. So
we need to hardcode the address for hw2.0.
