I've applied a different fix for this, just disabling the log_event file when CONFIG_IWLWIFI_DEBUG is disabled. This looks like it could use some disentangling but I'm not sure what you did is really the right approach, some refactoring would seem to be better. Also, is "Lekensteyn" really your full name? Not that it matters now because I didn't apply your patch, but for patch submissions please read the "developer's certificate of origin" in the kernel sources.
