Hey, somebody actually reads that stuff! I guess I'll need to be
careful what I write from now on :)

Hi Justin, on a more serious note, if you are having problems with
labeled networking it's probably a good idea to CC the SELinux, LSM
and/or netdev lists depending on the issue as I often miss mail if it
is only posted to LKML. When in doubt you can just CC me personally
(paul.moore@hp.com) and I'll add whatever list seems appropriate.

Good, that is how it should work give the configuration shown above.

That is just plain odd, there isn't really anything that is driver
specific. Can you share any more details like kernel version,
netlabel_tools verion, distro, etc? I don't have any ath9k hardware
lying around to test so I would appreciate whatever additional
information you can provide.
