I am happy to confirm that your driver also works with my Ralink-based
D-Link dongle (running via USB passthrough in QEMU and flood pinging it
from the out-site). I encountered the I/O signal handling issue once
but since its a known problem I mostly ignored that for now.

I added the missing feature to the generic driver binary and changed the
'wifi_ath9k.run' run-script to use that instead of the specific one.

(I pushed the corresponding branches called 'usb_wifi-2023-06-11' for
the genode and genode-world repo.)
