From: Don Fry <[email protected]>
With linux-3.2 the iwlagn driver is renamed iwlwifi. For some kernels
(like 3.1.5) this causes the non-compat iwlagn.ko to try and run against
the compat mac80211 resulting in a kernel oops. This change prevents the
non-compat iwlagn.ko from being loaded.

Hey Luis, I don't see this in your tree, did you just miss it?
