To fix this, always call ath_flushrecv from within ath_stoprecv before the FIFO is emptied, but still after the hw receive path has been stopped. This ensures that frames received (and ACKed by the hardware) shortly before a reset will be seen by the software, which should improve A-MPDU session stability.
