+Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: limit retries for powersave response frames
+
+In some cases, the channel might be busy enough that an ath9k AP's
+response to PS-Poll frames might be too slow and the station has already
+gone to sleep. To avoid wasting too much airtime on this, limit the
+number of retries on such frames and ensure that no sample rate gets
+used.
