ath5k: always extend rx timestamp with tsf
always extend the rx timestamp with the local TSF, since this information is also needed for proper IBSS merging. this is done in the tasklet for now, maybe has to be moved to the interrupt handler like in madwifi. drivers/net/wireless/ath5k/base.c: Changes-licensed-under: 3-Clause-BSD Signed-off-by: Bruno Randolf <bruno@thinktube.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
