Hello Jussi,

I have applied the patch to kernel 3.7.8 and it doesn't fix my issue. I have
started testing the latest 3.9.0-rc2 version. I will let you know once I have
tested.

Thanks,
Vishnu.

Please be aware that the patch is not in 3.9-rc2 from Linus's git tree (yet),
but it is in the wireless-testing git repo.
