I applied the patch, and it said "main.c was patched". I compiled ath9k drivers with this command: checkinstall make KLIB=/lib/modules/3.1.5-custom install=no It created a deb file. I installed the deb file. Booted into linux-3.1.5 kernel. And ran may AP mode script. First client got authenticated. And soon the freeze occurred. If you want me to do further tests just let me know.
