Subject: [029/289] ath9k: rename rxflushlock to pcu_lock

2.6.36-stable review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let us know.

------------------

From: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@...eros.com>

commit b79b33c4baf2532aac2c0924dce5a738099b888c upstream.

The real way to lock RX is to contend on the PCU
and reset, this will be fixed in the next patch but for
now just do the renames so that the next patch which changes
the locking order is crystal clear.

This is part of a series that will help resolve the bug:
