Hi,

Please create a PR and assign it to me.

I'm in the middle of updating if_ath/ath_hal to work a little better
on some of the earlier chips (AR9160) which is a generation before the
AR9285.

I've got one of these laptops with an AR9285 in it and I'll go digging
at some point soon to fix bugs. There's likely a variety of fixes that
need to be ported from Linux.

Thanks,
