Since ath9k_wmi_event_tasklet() is set by ath9k_init_wmi() from ath9k_htc_probe_device(), it is possible that ath9k_wmi_event_tasklet() is called via tasklet interrupt before spin_lock_init() from ath9k_init_priv() from ath9k_init_device() from ath9k_htc_probe_device() is called. Let's hold ath9k_wmi_event_tasklet(WMI_TXSTATUS_EVENTID) no-op until ath9k_tx_init() completes.
