Wow, your patches seem to be a lot more helpful than your emails.
I presume it's this one below, which at first sight seems to be
working for me on iwl3945 - thank you for that.

This patch fixes mac80211 to not use the skb->cb over the queue step
from virtual interfaces to the master. The patch also, for now,
disables aggregation because that would still require requeuing,
will fix that in a separate patch. There are two other places (software
requeue and powersaving stations) where requeue can happen, but that is
not currently used by any drivers/not possible to use respectively.

This fixes wireless. At least it works on my WPA network, I haven't
actually tested a broken kernel.
