Dave,

Here are a few more late-breakers that I would like to see in 2.6.39.
The one from Luca fixes a problem that can cause devices to be unable
to (re-)associate after a disconnect. The ath9k fix from Mohammed
fixes a WARNING, the one from Paul fixes a locking issue that can
lead to data corruption, and the one from Stanislaw fixes a crash
documented in bug 34452. All are small and all but one are contained
within their respective drivers.

Please let me know if there are problems!

John
