do you see any way for fixing (or improving) this with the current code
and hold the whole framework change off until the next merge window.

Maybe instead of iwl_free_calib_results(priv); just freeing them
individually in their case statements.

You know the hardware better than I do, but that should just work
(judging from the code).

Marcel
