[PATCH 49/97] ath9k: wake hardware during AMPDU TX actions

From: Greg Kroah-Hartman
Date: Mon Jan 04 2010 - 19:46:58 EST


From: Luis R. Rodriguez <lrodriguez@xxxxxxxxxxx>

commit 8b685ba9de803f210936400612a32a2003f47cd3 upstream.

AMDPDU actions poke hardware for TX operation, as such
we want to turn hardware on for these actions. AMDPU RX operations
do not require hardware on as nothing is done in hardware for
those actions. Without this we cannot guarantee hardware has
been programmed correctly for each AMPDU TX action.
