The patch adds support for "outside the context of a BSS"(OCB) mode
to ath9k driver and extends debugfs files by OCB ralated information.
This patch was tested on AR9380-AL1A cards.

Hello Felix,
Thank you for the thorough review!
I redesigned this patch based on your idea and it looks good.
I am going to make some additional tests and I'll send new patch.

I don't think OCB should be treated like STA/Ad-Hoc for ANI purposes.
In fact, I think most places inside ath9k_hw should treat OCB the same
as AP - maybe even by leaving ah->opmode at NL80211_IFTYPE_AP for OCB.

Why treat OCB like Ad-hoc for STA_ID1?

Enabling the TSFOOR interrupt for OCB seems completely wrong to me. If I
understand this mode correctly, there are no beacons, hence no TSF
synchronization.
