Dave,

When you pull this, could you also revert 57921c31 ("libertas: Read
buffer overflow").  It has been shown to create a new problem.  There
is work towards a solution to that one, but it isn't a simple clean-up.

If you would prefer, I can include the revert with another pull
request or even regenerate this one.  Just let me know if that is
what you prefer.

Thanks,

John
