On my laptop the iwl3945 driver oopsed at boot with 2.6.37-rc1
in __dev_printk.
The problem is that for some reason it prints the sw scan
warning, but does that before the pci device is initialized
in the driver private structure. This leads to an oops
in the warning print code.
Move the warning after the device has been initialized.

Thanks. Can that please be sent to Linus ASAP? It doesn't really
help my laptop if it's in some obscure git tree.

Yup, something like this is needed, sorry about this!
I believe we have a fix for this in the pipeline somewhere.
