SRU Justification:

Impact: The ath9k-htc module is contained in the compat-wireless-2.6.37
backports for Lucid and Maverick. However the firmware for that module
is missing.

Fix: Import the firmware file from the official firmware repository
(already included in Natty). This is a separate new file. So regressions
are not to be expected.

Testcase: Inserting a wireless dongle that requires the ath9k-htc module
fails without this.

Subject: [PATCH] UBUNTU: Pull firmware for ath9k-htc from Natty

BugLink: http://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/721393

This module is brought back to Maverick and Lucid by the compat-
wireless-2.6.37 backports package. It requires this firmware to
work.
