Luis,
The patch that I sent John is already Cc [email protected], 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.

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.

I sent 4 backport patches (from commit
d6a574ff6bfb842bdb98065da053881ff527be46) to [email protected];
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.
