+Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: dynack: use authentication messages for 'late' ack
+
+In order to properly support dynack in ad-hoc mode running
+wpa_supplicant, take into account authentication frames for
+'late ack' detection. This patch has been tested on devices
+mounted on offshore high-voltage stations connected through
+~24Km link
