+Subject: [PATCH] ath9k: use iowrite32 over __raw_writel
+To: linux-wireless@vger.kernel.org
+Cc: QCA ath9k Development <ath9k-devel@qca.qualcomm.com>,
+ Kalle Valo <kvalo@codeaurora.org>,
+ Hauke Mehrtens <hauke@hauke-m.de>,
+ Mathias Kresin <dev@kresin.me>,
+ Martin Blumenstingl <martin.blumenstingl@googlemail.com>
+
+This patch changes the ath9k_pci_owl_loader to use the
+same iowrite32 memory accessor that ath9k_pci is using
+to communicate with the PCI(e) chip.
+
+This will fix endian issues that came up during testing
+with loaned AVM Fritz!Box 7360 (Lantiq MIPS SoCs + AR9287).
+
+Fixes: 5a4f2040fd07 ("ath9k: add loader for AR92XX (and older) pci(e)")

-Subject: misc: owl-loader for delayed Atheros ath9k fixup
-
-Some devices (like the Cisco Meraki Z1 Cloud Managed Teleworker Gateway)
-need to be able to initialize the PCIe wifi device. Normally, this is done
-during the early stages of booting linux, because the necessary init code
-is read from the memory mapped SPI and passed to pci_enable_ath9k_fixup.
-However,this isn't possible for devices which have the init code for the
-Atheros chip stored on NAND in an UBI volume. Hence, this module can be
-used to initialze the chip when the user-space is ready to extract the
-init code.
