The last entry on this one says we are not sure how to fix
this...

That was a patch posted for that by Tim Gardner:
https://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/105008/

The patch is applied to wireless-testing
(d6a574ff6bfb842bdb98065da053881ff527be46)

$ git describe d6a574ff6bfb842bdb98065da053881ff527be46
v2.6.34-4694-gd6a574f

I understand it was applied after 2.6.34, so it should be
backported to 2.6.34 and whatever older kernels are
affected.

Tim can this be sent for stable?

Luis, a stable whore


Luis,

The patch that I sent John is already Cc stable@xxxxxxxxxx,
though it may not now apply after
56bf882230d2266a2e07b7f404dc96d157a65daa 'Revert "wireless:
hostap, fix oops due to early probing interrupt"'. I'll check in
the morning and craft a backported patch if necessary.

Sweet thanks for the heads up!

Luis


Hmm, looks like I'm gonna have to write some backport patches. I'll
wait until this appears in Linus' tree so I can feed stable the right
SHA1 info.

rtg

I sent 4 backport patches (from commit
d6a574ff6bfb842bdb98065da053881ff527be46) to stable@xxxxxxxxxx;
2.6.27.y, 2.6.32.y, 2.6.33.y, and 2.6.34.y. Unfortunately they all
required unique patches in order to cleanly apply since there seemed to
be some fiddling around with driver specific card services macros from
version to version.
