Hi, Shinoda

It could be due to old ath9k chipset filtering issue (broadcast packet
is filtered out, such as ARP request) as mentioned in:
https://github.com/cozybit/open80211s/wiki/ath9kFilteringIssueFix

So modify as follow in ath9k/recv.c and see how:
+               if (sc->sc_ah->hw_version.macVersion ==
AR_SREV_VERSION_9160      ||
+                   sc->sc_ah->hw_version.macVersion == AR_SREV_VERSION_9100)

I have run into the same problem on my AR54516 PCI card before.
