I've been running Linus' current tree for the whole time and haven't seen
any iwlwifi traces since my initial report on the 11th.

I can't reproduce the bug, even by doing the same operation
(an scp of a dozen photographs).

It seems to happen almost at random, as if it's somehow timing related.
I'm running the patched kernel again now, and it's been fine for the last hour.
