So, what do you thing about handling ath_pci with the module juggling 
and rt2860 "natively"? I mean something like this:

if the detected wireless module is ath_pci, then do the modprobe 
dance;
otherwise, just echo 0/1 > $wlan_control and let hotplugging do its 
job.

Hopefully, the ath5 module won't need the dance and will just work :)
