[ATH] 9.2-PRERELEASE and wlan0 device disconnection

[Tj]

Ok it's gotten worse now. I can no longer restart netif, it just hangs
there in "uninterruptible wait" forever (trying to "delete" the wlan0
interface using ifconfig)

Hmm, let me know how that goes, I'll probably try it too. How did you
find the number '51200', and what does that value do?

Also: Yea, I had used FreeBSD on this laptop a while back (back when
current was version 9), back then it was basically unusable. Looks like
you're right, it gets a little better and a little worse.
