Subject: ipw2200: "ieee80211: Info elem: parse failed"

Hi,

since 2.6.19-rc1 I'm getting these messages from ipw2200 driver:
ieee80211: Info elem: parse failed: info_element->len + 2 > left : 
info_element->len+2=8 left=2, id=128.

The driver says:
ipw2200: Intel(R) PRO/Wireless 2200/2915 Network Driver, 1.1.4km
ipw2200: Copyright(c) 2003-2006 Intel Corporation
ACPI: PCI Interrupt Link [LNKC] enabled at IRQ 3
PCI: setting IRQ 3 as level-triggered
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:02:07.0[A] -> Link [LNKC] -> GSI 3 (level, low) -> IRQ 3
ipw2200: Detected Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG Network Connection
ACPI: PCI Interrupt 0000:00:13.2[A] -> Link [LNKD] -> GSI 10 (level, low) -> IRQ 10

and works, but the message is annoying, since the driver prints it again and 
again. What could be wrong?

regards,
