- * ath5k_hw_noise_floor_calibration - perform PHY noise floor calibration
- *
- * @ah: struct ath5k_hw pointer we are operating on
- * @freq: the channel frequency, just used for error logging
- *
- * This function performs a noise floor calibration of the PHY and waits for
- * it to complete. Then the noise floor value is compared to some maximum
- * noise floor we consider valid.
- *
- * Note that this is different from what the madwifi HAL does: it reads the
- * noise floor and afterwards initiates the calibration. Since the noise floor
- * calibration can take some time to finish, depending on the current channel
- * use, that avoids the occasional timeout warnings we are seeing now.
- *
- * See the following link for an Atheros patent on noise floor calibration:
- * http://patft.uspto.gov/netacgi/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&Sect2=HITOFF&d=PALL \
