Apologies for being ignorant of process, but which bundle of
compat-wireless do (/will?) these patches appear in, and which
version of 2.6.32 will they be in?

I'm running an ath5k AP on a 64-bit Fedora 12 system, and while
it was pretty reliable on 2.6.31, a recent update took the
version to 2.6.32 (currently running 3.6.32.9-67, and next
update is to 2.6.32.9-70 in case the Fedora version numbers make
sense to anyone reading this), and I'm getting the "no further
txbuf" issue, so I'd like to build a version of the module with
these patches, but ideally not a bleeding edge one.

Thanks,

  Jón
