Here is overriderom.patch , which allows you to override rom of ath9k-driven card for testing, recovery, etc
It is writen for 4.4.16 lts version, but most likely it is usable for other versions due to ath9k source code is not being changed often.

cd ${kernel-source-root}/drivers/net/wireless/ath
patch -s -p0 < overriderom.patch
ISSUE
Overriding ROM is not configurable and enabled by default (using #defines directly in source code). Fixing of that is welcome
