+Subject: [PATCH] ath5k: channel change fix
+
+ath5k updates the channel pointer and after that it stops the Rx logic
+and apply channel to HW. In case of channel switch, such sequence
+creates a small window when a frame, which is received on the old
+channel is considered as a frame received on the new one.
+
+The most notable consequence of this situation occurs during the switch
+from 2 GHz band (CCK+OFDM) to the 5GHz band (OFDM-only). Frame received
+with CCK rate, e.g. beacon received at the 1mbps, causes the following
+warning:
+
+  WARNING: at ath5k/base.c:589 ath5k_tasklet_rx+0x318/0x6ec [ath5k]()
+  invalid hw_rix: 1a

+
+The easiest way to reproduce this warning is to run scan with dualband
+NIC in noisy environments, when the channel 11 runs multiple APs. In my
+tests if the APs num >= 12, the warning appears in the first few
+seconds of scanning.
+
+In order to fix this, the Rx disable code moved to a higher level and
+placed before the channel pointer update. This is also makes the code a
+bit more symmetrical, since we disable and enable the Rx in the same
+function.
+
+In fact, at the pointer update time new frames should not appear,
+because interrupt generation at this point should already be disabled.
+The next patch should address this issue.
