ath5k: use correct packet type when transmitting
commit 2ac2927a953a01c83df255118922cce1523d1a18 upstream. The hardware needs to know what type of frames are being sent in order to fill in various fields, for example the timestamp in probe responses (before this patch, it was always 0). Set it correctly when initializing the TX descriptor. Signed-off-by: Bob Copeland <me@bobcopeland.com> Signed-off-by: John W.
