Subject: [PATCH] [64/99] Revert "iwlagn: Support new 5000 microcode."

2.6.35-longterm review patch.  If anyone has any objections, please let me know.

------------------
This reverts commit 6f63415fc1b690cb50c2ad48ba6e9e6e88e271b4.

It turns out this is not what we want to have happen for the .32 and
.33-longterm kernels as it does not work properly at all.

This was reported by Gentoo, Arch, and Canonical developers as causing
problems for their users:
