+    ath9k: fix pending tx frames accounting
+    
+    Packets originally buffered for the regular hardware tx queues can end
+    up being transmitted through the U-APSD queue (via PS-Poll or U-APSD).
+    When packets are dropped due to retransmit failures, the pending frames
+    counter is not always updated properly.
+    Fix this by keeping track of the queue that a frame was accounted for in
+    the ath_frame_info struct, and using that on completion to decide
+    whether the counter should be updated.
+    This fixes some spurious transmit queue hangs.
