[Make-wifi-fast] ATH9K Airtime fairness in git?

[Frank Horowitz]

Hi Toke (et al.)

First off, thanks for all of your hard work on this!

I’m attempting to patch a relatively mainline kernel tree with your ath9k patches — mostly so I can have those patches and BBR in one box. I’m having some issues applying your LEDE patch to a 4.9 kernel, and want to try with git’s help from an ancestral tree.  Do you have an accessible git repository with your patch integrated into kernel 4.4 or newer (as opposed to the patch itself in the LEDE tree)? 

Many Thanks (and Happy New Year to all!),
	Frank Horowitz

The patch has been accepted by upstream, so it should be in
wireless-drivers-next :)

It was just submitted for kernel 3.11 a few hours ago.

I think you mean 4.11 right ?

Ahhh.... 3.11! such a fine release that was. And 4.11 will be so much better!

(that said, I kind of anticipate having a few problems (and I don't
know what they will be!) and figure by 4.12 we'll have those
straightened out - 3.11.12 was the big, final release for cerowrt,
wasn't it?)

and... if you pull net-next, it entered that tree a few minutes back.

Very nice.  I might experiment with using the ath9k card in my E-450 as an AP, instead of the decade-old Airport Extreme Base Station.
