Do you mean that the 4.9 athn driver can do power saving,
and the following (CAVEATS from the 4.8 manpage) no longer applies?
Host AP mode doesn't support power saving. Clients attempting
to use power saving mode may experience significant packet
loss (disabling power saving on the client will fix this).
