-Subject: [PATCH] cfg80211: fix antenna gain handling
-
-No driver initializes chan->max_antenna_gain to something sensible, and
-the only place where it is being used right now is inside ath9k. This
-leads to ath9k potentially using less tx power than it can use, which can
-decrease performance/range in some rare cases.
-
-Rather than going through every single driver, this patch initializes
-chan->orig_mag in wiphy_register(), ignoring whatever value the driver
-left in there. If a driver for some reason wishes to limit it independent
-from regulatory rulesets, it can do so internally.

-Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: fix stale pointers potentially causing access to free'd skbs
-
-bf->bf_next is only while buffers are chained as part of an A-MPDU
-in the tx queue. When a tid queue is flushed (e.g. on tearing down
-an aggregation session), frames can be enqueued again as normal
-transmission, without bf_next being cleared. This can lead to the
-old pointer being dereferenced again later.
-
-This patch might fix crashes and "Failed to stop TX DMA!" messages.

-Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Test for TID only in BlockAcks while checking tx status
-
-The ath9k xmit functions for AMPDUs can send frames as non-aggregate in case
-only one frame is currently available. The client will then answer using a
-normal Ack instead of a BlockAck. This acknowledgement has no TID stored and
-therefore the hardware is not able to provide us the corresponding TID.
-
-The TID set by the hardware in the tx status descriptor has to be seen as
-undefined and not as a valid TID value for normal acknowledgements. Doing
-otherwise results in a massive amount of retransmissions and stalls of
-connections.
-
-Users may experience low bandwidth and complete connection stalls in
-environments with transfers using multiple TIDs.
-
-This regression was introduced in b11b160defc48e4daa283f785192ea3a23a51f8e
-("ath9k: validate the TID in the tx status information").
