Subject: [PATCH] ath9k_hw: Fix INI fixup

From: Sujith Manoharan <[email protected]>

Commit "ath9k_hw: move AR9280 PCI EEPROM fix to eeprom_def.c"
changed the behavior of INI overriding which is needed only
for PCI cards. Revert to the original check.

Thanks, the reason I ask was to determine if this was a stable fix.

You leave me no option but to come out of e-mail reply slumber. What
issues was this causing?

The INI fixup is required only for AR9280 PCI cards. Changing it to a SREV
check that includes all chipsets above AR9280 would mean changing the initvals
for other cards too. The couple of cards I have did not hit this check,
but that doesn't mean that there are no weirdly configured cards out there...
