"The problem is the innocent looking moving of the tx processing to
 after the rx processing in the tasklet. Quoting from the changelog:
  This patch does it the same way, except that it also prioritize
  rx data processing, simply because tx routines *can* wait.

 This is causing an issue with us referencing already freed memory,
 because some skb's we transmit, we immediately receive back, such
 as those for reading the eeprom (*) and getting stats.

 What can happen because of the moving of the tx processing to after
 the rx processing is that when the tasklet first runs after doing a
 special skb tx (such as eeprom) we've already received the answer
 to it.

 Then the rx processing ends up calling p54_find_and_unlink_skb to
 find the matching tx skb for the just received special rx skb and
 frees the tx skb.

 Then after the processing of the rx skb answer, and thus freeing
 the tx skb, we go process the completed tx ring entires, and then
 dereference the free-ed skb, to see if it should free free-ed by
 p54p_check_tx_ring()."

hardware drivers with IEEE80211_HW_HAS_RATE_CONTROL this is not performed,

ath9k: Group Key fix for VAPs

When I set up multiple VAPs with ath9k, I encountered an issue that
the traffic may be lost after a while.

The detailed phenomenon is
1. After a while the clients connected to one of these VAPs will get
into a state that no broadcast/multicast packets can be transfered
successfully while the unicast packets can be transfered normally.
2. Minutes latter the unitcast packets transfer will fail as well,
because the ARP entry is expired and it can't be freshed due to the
broadcast trouble.

It's caused by the group key overwritten and someone discussed this
issue in ath9k-devel maillist before, but haven't work out a fix yet.

I referred the method in madwifi, and made a patch for ath9k.
The method is to set the high bit of the sender(AP)'s address, and
associated that mac and the group key. It requires the hardware
supports multicast frame key search. It seems true for AR9160.

Not sure whether it's the correct way to fix this issue. But it seems
to work in my test. The patch is attached, feel free to revise it.
