Alright, nice, thanks! Patch applied and I also propagated it to the
linux-2.6.36.y branch so that we can get this fix for the
compat-wireless-2.6.36 release as well. I should note your patch did
not apply as the offsets were way off but I did just read the patch
and merged it manually. What version of compat were you using?
