ath: fix world regulatory domain fix-up so that all regulatory rules are processed
...
r24503 (trunk) and r24505 (backfire) revised the regulatory rules used
for the ath drivers' world regulatory domains in the 5GHz band by
opening up channels 36, 40, 44, and 48 to being used without the
*_PASSIVE_SCAN and *_NO_IBSS flags set. This was done by breaking
ATH9K_5GHZ_5150_5350 into two REG_RULES. The various struct
ieee80211_regdomains that reference these rules in their reg_rules
fields need to have their n_reg_rules fields updated accordingly.

mac80211: Improve ath5k/ar71xx PCI bug WAR
...
It has been confirmed by Atheros that this PCI bug affects the RX side only,
so we can keep the 128B DMA size for TX.
With this change we can double the thruput of ath5k from 15Mps to 30Mbps.
We have been using this patch since more than 6 month in a production
environment without problems and a significant performance improvement.
It has also been said to fix HW encryption:

ath9k: fix ath9k_hw_apply_gpio_override so that it's effective
...
I discovered another bug in the ath9k WNDR3700 quirk fix from r23822.
ath9k_hw_apply_gpio_override was testing the original value of gpio_mask
to determine which bits were appropriate, instead of testing the shifted
value. Because bit 0 is always clear in the original value, this
resulted in no calls to set the GPIOs, an improperly-configured radio,
and reduced RSSI on other systems listening to the radio.
