2012-10-29ath9k_hw: Fix concurrent tx on lower tx powerRajkumar Manoharan
Whenever WLAN receives scheduling msg from BT, it reduces tx power based on RSSI level. And then BT starts simultaneous transmission along with WLAN. Sometimes HW MAC compares tx power that is used prior to power reduction which is causing BT transmission to defer.

2012-10-29ar5523: Add new driverPontus Fuchs
This driver is for the AR5523 chipset from Atheros. It was created in 2007 by Christoph Hellwig but it was never finished. I found it a couple of months ago and after some polishing it's working pretty fine. The driver was written with the FreeBSD driver (uath) as reference, which was written with the reverse-engineered windows driver as reference, hence the feature set is very limited. Station mode only, no HW crypto offload. Signed-off-by: Pontus Fuchs <pontus.fuchs@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: John W. Linville <linville@tuxdriver.com>
