Without this fix, the following script can bring down a single CPU

I have one small comment. Patches for the rtlwifi family of drivers have patch subjects of the form [PATCH] rtlwifi: rtl8192cu: blah blah. I'll let Kalle decide if he wants ignore my comment, manually change the subjects, or request a V2. Otherwise all 3 patches are OK.
