I added this patch to the Fedora rawhide kernels, but our Fedora QA lead reports that he still has this crash: http://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=233011 I had diagnosed this to be the same crash as this patch was supposed to address. Was I in error? He also reports that the problem still occurs on my FC7 test kernels, which are very close to the current rawhide kernels but with the most recent round of wireless-dev updates added. http://people.redhat.com/linville/kernels/fc7/ Any thoughts?
