I have searched in the kernel bugzilla for ath9k_htc related bugs. Apparently some users had troubles with the driver and updated their firmware which may be changing+saving certain settings on the chipset of the wireless NIC.

[Bug 1365672] Re: A recent firmware update made ath9k_htc card cause kernel panic/freeze
I am also seeing this same issue with a TL-WN722N, it uses the same ath9k_htc driver. I am running ubuntu 14.04 with the 3.17-rc5 kernel and latest 14.10 firmware. Attached is my kern.log containing at least one instance of this crash from 3.17-rc4.(grep for oops =)). I've also seen this crash in rc5 but strangely it's not showing up in the kernel log. Most likely the watchdog didn't catch it in time. ** Attachment added: Kernel log from incidents on 3.17-rc4 https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1365672/+attachment/4204127/+files/kern.log.1 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1365672 Title: A recent firmware update made ath9k_htc card cause kernel panic/freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1365672/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 1365672] Re: A recent firmware update made ath9k_htc card cause kernel panic/freeze
I think I incurred in the same problem. I've just built a git 3.17 kernel (as a task of the eudyptula challenge) and when trying it, it crashes after a while (i generally just manage to login) if I have my usb wifi dongle inserted. Without the wifi dongle, no problems. I don't have a screen of the error, maybe I can get it, but it certainly ended with `Fixing recursive fault but reboot is needed! and mentioned ath9k_hw_scan (which seems like it has been introduced recently: http://markmail.org/message/fyjhuk4zo7vusbru and could be the problem. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1365672 Title: A recent firmware update made ath9k_htc card cause kernel panic/freeze To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/linux-firmware/+bug/1365672/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

Thanks for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. We appreciate the difficulties you are facing, but this appears to be a regular (non-security) bug. I have unmarked it as a security issue since this bug does not show evidence of allowing attackers to cross privilege boundaries nor directly cause loss of data/privacy.
