Greg, please also merge this to the staging-linus branch since it might
resolve an instability issue.

Correction: I tested it now. Indeed it resolves a problem (segmentation
fault) upon dissociation on amd64.

People on the .38 kernel see the problem even worse: they experience a
crash on dissociation on both i386 and amd64.

Understood. Since behavior has not regressed, I think this fix does not
qualify to be sent to Linus. Perhaps we can get it into a
compat-wireless package.
Thanks, Roland.

It "might"?
Is this a regression? Do people see the problem on the .38 kernel as
well?
It's way too late for anything but severe regressions to be sent to
Linus at this point in time...
