Subject: ath9k: unable to reset hardware

Hi!

[ 4342.364205] ath_open: unable to reset hardware; hal status
4294967277 (freq 2437 flags 0x700e2)
[ 4342.364957] ath9k_start: Unable to complete ath_open
[ 4372.412478] ath_open: unable to reset hardware; hal status
4294967277 (freq 2437 flags 0x700e2)
[ 4372.420685] ath9k_start: Unable to complete ath_open
[ 4373.101414] ath_open: unable to reset hardware; hal status
4294967277 (freq 2437 flags 0x700e2)
[ 4373.102549] ath9k_start: Unable to complete ath_open

I'm using 2.6.27-rc5-wl-16606-g643e533 on a MacBookPro2,2 (AR5418).
rmmod ath9k && modprobe ath9k is enough to fix the issue, but
connectivity becomes a lot more unstable after that.
