The first is a fix to a recently submitted patch "iwlwifi: Fix to set correct ht configuration" With the second two patches we start to address http://bugzilla.intellinuxwireless.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2160 where it can be seen that there are instances where the number of freed tfds are negative. We include two patches to (1) prevent the problem from occuring, and (2) prevent the problem from propagating when it does occur. Unfortunately "iwlwifi: sanity check before counting number of tfds can be free" is not the only fix needed for this situation to occur, hence "iwlwifi: error checking for number of tfds in queue" is needed while this problem is being investigated further. These patches are also available from wireless-2.6 branch on git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/iwlwifi/iwlwifi-2.6.git Dan Halperin (1): iwlwifi: set HT flags after channel in rxon Wey-Yi Guy (2): iwlwifi: sanity check before counting number of tfds can be free iwlwifi: error checking for number of tfds in queue drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-4965.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-5000.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-core.c | 2 +- drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-core.h | 2 ++ drivers/net/wireless/iwlwifi/iwl-tx.c | 25 +++++++++++++++++++++++-- 5 files changed, 28 insertions(+), 5 deletions(-)
