2.6.36-stable review patch. If anyone has any objections, please let us know.
------------------ From: Felix Fietkau <[email protected]> commit d47844a014fada1a788719f6426bc7044f2a0fd8 upstream. It seems that using ath9k_hw_stoppcurecv to stop rx dma is not enough. When it's time to stop DMA, the PCU is still busy, so the rx enable bit never clears. Using ath9k_hw_abortpcurecv helps with getting rx stopped much faster, with this change, I cannot reproduce the rx stop related WARN_ON anymore.
