Subject: pull request: wireless-2.6 2009-08-28

Dave,

One more late-breaker for 2.6.31...

This patch is rather large for this stage of the cycle, but it
corrects a regression disussed recently on LKML, documented in bug
14016 at bugzilla.kernel.org.  This jist of it is that the ipw2200
firmware loading routine was using an order 6 memory allocation that was
failing with newer allocators under some circumstances.

Please let me know if there are problems!

Thanks,

John
