Two fixes are included. The first problem being fixed is to stop data
transmission when mac80211 indicates that station left IBSS. The second fix
is a companion fix to the one already included as "iwl3945: fix panic in
iwl3945 driver" that also addresses the panic. With this patch the panic is
addressed and we still need to figure out why bad data arrives from device.
This patch also targets stable.

These patches are also available from wireless-2.6 branch on
git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git
I had some problems compiling wireless-2.6 as I ran into the problem
described in http://patchwork.kernel.org/patch/68463/ . I assume that the
"CONFIG_KPROBES=n" relies on patch "[PATCH] x86: compile insn.c and inat.c
only for KPROBES", which is not present in wireless-2.6. I am using
gawk. For testing I manually applied this patch and disabled kprobes to be
able to build.
Thank you

From: Zhu Yi <[email protected]>
When txq read_ptr equals to write_ptr, iwl_queue_used should
always return false. Because there is no used TFD in this case.
This is a complementary fix to the fix already included in commit "iwl3945:
fix panic in iwl3945 driver". Both fixes are needed to address the panic
below.
This problem was discussed on linux-wireless in
http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.linux.kernel.wireless.general/43568

1.5.6.3
From: Abhijeet Kolekar <[email protected]>
On beacon change update notification from mac we are not disabling
the tx in adhoc mode. Mac sends BSS_CHANGED_BEACON_ENABLED when
station leaves IBSS. Driver should indicate uCode to not to send
anything on receiving this notification.
Functionality to indicate uCode is duplicated across
two notifications so created a common function called iwl_set_no_assoc.
Fix the issue at
http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2133.

This problem went away after I upgraded gawk from 3.1.6 to 3.1.7.
