1. As I wait box we lost scanning in A mode, we have WARN_ON(1) on
every RX packet now because of invalid rate
2. There are few sparse bugs if you run it - don't remember exactly
3. HT doesn't compile bug  this I want to fix over HT AGG patches
4. Few problems in code I spotted but there are probably many
For example in RX path
  rate_idx = iwl4965_hw_get_rate(
				le32_to_cpu(rx_start->rate_n_flags)),

This is wrong
1. the le_to_cpu is redundant (it's aleardy done in hw)
2. it will give you rate in plcp format and not the index

I rather do better review of this... first I want to put this patch
above HT agg patches

Thanks
Tomas
