Fair enough. I can't really comment on that patch. You might want to
have somebody do some spring cleaning in iwlwifi, I just found this
comment I inserted there during some refactoring:

4150c572 (Johannes Berg      2007-09-17 01:29:23 -0400 6941) /*
4150c572 (Johannes Berg      2007-09-17 01:29:23 -0400 6942)  * very dubious code was here; the probe filtering flag is never set:

b481de9c (Zhu Yi             2007-09-25 17:54:57 -0700 6945)        !(priv->hw->flags & IEEE80211_HW_NO_PROBE_FILTERING)) {
