New description:

 See https://wiki.freebsd.org/dev/ath_hal%284%29/AR9300 for the current
 FreeBSD support state for these family of adapters of QCA (QualCom
 Atheros).

 One thing to watch is if that this new AR9300 HAL is targetting FreeBSD
 HEAD, not 9-, which AFAICT is what we currently support with our compat
 layer.
