Hi All,
I have just built and booted with next-20160530 and my dmesg is full of 
warnings from ath9k. Last kernel tested was v4.6 and there was no 
problem with that.

The traces are like:

If it is a known problem then great.. else i can debug and see what the 
problem is. There are only few patches added for GPIO, so should not be 
a problem to find out what is causing the error.
