Subject: pull request: wireless-2.6 2008-09-11
Dave,
Here is one fix for 2.6.27. It is a backport of a patch that is already
in net-next-2.6. Since it is for a new driver (ath9k) and since it
fixes a reported bug (http://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=11394)
I think it should be OK to pass it to Linus for the current cycle.
John
