One piece of my backport to 3.2.y went missing in the forward-port to
3.4.y.  Can you test 3.4.83 with this patch on top?

Subject: iwlwifi: Complete backport of "iwlwifi: always copy first 16 bytes of commands"

Linux 3.4.83 included an incomplete backport of commit
8a964f44e01ad3bbc208c3e80d931ba91b9ea786 ('iwlwifi: always copy first
16 bytes of commands') which causes a regression for this driver.
This is the missing piece.
