-Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET before HW reset
-
-When a HW reset is done, the interrupt tasklet is
-disabled before ISRs are disabled in the HW. This
-allows a small window where the HW can still generate
-interrupts. Since the tasklet is disabled and not killed,
-it is not scheduled but deferred for execution at a later
-time.
-
-This happens because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is not set when ath_reset()
-is called. When the hw_reset_work workqueue is used, this
-problem doesn't arise because ATH_OP_HW_RESET is set
-and the ISR bails out.
-
-Set ATH_OP_HW_RESET properly in ath_reset() to avoid
-this race - all the ath_reset_internal() callers have
-been converted to use ath_reset() in the previous patch.
