NAK

no maintainer wants to spend time on patches like this which bring no real
value to code that is not actively being maintained, and which violates the
established understanding that, except under certain recently established
criteria, declarations and code should not be interleaved.

please avoid sending any patches to ath* drivers that do not fix bugs.
