A patch has been posted to linux-wireless which accomplishes the workaround of disabling wireless power saving (ie. iw dev wlan0 set power_save off) by disabling power saving in the ath9k driver itself.
http://marc.info/?l=linux-wireless&m=137005085710866&w=2 I applied it to Debian's 3.2.41 kernel and verified that power saving is indeed disabled (after disabling my on-boot shell script which accomplished the same thing of course): root@debian:~# iw dev wlan0 get power_save Power save: off -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-kernel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
