It was because of the bad wording in the commit description. I was
expecting some more testing from my client before posting it again with
the wording fixed. They've been testing it and there is enough
improvement they require the patch. I don't get the thousands of errors
in iwconfig output. I can try to reproduce it here if I get more
details.

Thanks,
