Please note, ath9k_htc is also used on HW where real hrtimer actually
exist. It should behave differently and produce different load on the
system. The overhead of setting up the hrtimers *may* not be worth it.
Depending on the load, it may provide lots of avoidable interrupts.
Did you tried to use simple tasklet_start?
