This diff changes the output of the dmesg to the following for ath0:
ath0 at pci1 dev 9 function 0 "Atheros AR5212" rev 0x01: irq 10
ath0: AR5213 7.9 phy 4.5 rf2112a 5.6, FCC1A, address 00:11:95:bd:f5:30
However I am not able to connect to any networks. And on a side note, the
kernel panic goes away.
