[Voyage-linux] ksoftirqd/0 consumes all CPU during atheros transmit

[Ignacio Foche]

Hello Edwin, it's not really an answer but i've got the same behaviour in WRAPs also bridging eth0 and ath0. In my 
case, this happends seconds after an IP root queue deletion and solved removing than deletion from my throughput 
messure scripts...after that everything goes back to normal. Could it be your IP queues?
